Lawrence D. Keough Building a Conscience is Mr. Keough's first novel. He derives satisfaction in writing fiction that has a redemptive message for readers to consider. He intends to embark on a second novel in the coming year. In many respects, he is going back to the future by re-establishing his writing career. In his early professional life, he was a journalist, speech writer and media relations liaison. In 1995, he was the recipient of Newsweek's 1995 Grand Gold Award for Excellence in News Writing. He also has received other awards in news writing from the Council for Advancement and Support for Education (CASE). But most of his professional work for the past 18 years has been as a registered lobbyist engaged in education policy and budgetary matters in Florida and Ohio. Mr. Keough is a husband and father of five children, Joel, Ryan, Kyle, Mary Kate and Sara Beth. He and his wife, Jackie, have been married 31 years. And last but not least, he is an avid boater who has logged thousands of miles cruising on waterways, from Lake Erie to the Gulf of Mexico, to the Florida Keys and Bimini/ Bahamas. See less
