Cooney, William

William Cooney is a first-time author from Cromwell, Connecticut. After many years of renegotiating the concept of "God," Mr. Cooney shed his religious upbringing altogether and embraced a "path of reason." The author embarked upon his long-awaited journey of expression posting essays on a lonely blog as a way of coping with the challenges of managing bipolar disorder. His deft command of words and disciplined style plainly belie his lack of advanced formal education. Looking ahead, Mr. Cooney hopes to one day make sense of his fractured experiences and tell his emotional tale in a memoir.
