Anthony Nerada became a writer after his fifth-grade teacher told him it was his destiny. Since then, he’s read too many books (if there is such a thing) and explored worlds far outside the reaches of his own. Anthony holds a BA in psychology and two diplomas (one in public relations, the other in publishing), which allow him to write the day away while simultaneously psychoanalyzing his friends. Anthony lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the Coast Salish Peoples. Skater Boy is his debut novel.

Is anyone surprised I’m here giving my own book 5 stars? No, not really, but I'm going to do it anyway (lol).

Skater Boy was born out of a desire to highlight a queer experience that is rarely told, from a character who is unapologetically more grumpy
