Richard E. La Motte is a novelist and influential seasoned writer of romantic action and suspense with historical elements; his new novel, titled “The Song of Ramon and Maria,” was released in September 2022, and his subsequent titles, “The Treasure,” and “A Crime Story” in October 2022, which all are available on Amazon books, Kindle, KU, and fine literary sites and magazines.

Richard has always been an observer of people and loves stories; he enjoys romantic stories about history, suspense, mysterious and exotic places, danger, and adventure. Stories about behavior, motivation, self-realization, and self-deception – in other words, stories about us - us as humans. This passion resulted from when he joined the Marine Corps just out of high school.

This passion was born from working in the motion picture industry as a costume designer, art director, technical advisor, and director – traveling worldwide, and setting up departments in foreign countries. In addition, he enjoyed working with prominent Hollywood actors and actresses. The novelist, a unique storyteller, has worked in off-beaten places on six continents.

The Author is an avid history lover, reader, and researcher and a collector, artist, designer, and music lover. Most importantly, Richard is a Husband and Father. Full of wisdom from life’s experiences, Richard E. LaMotte brings all of his unique talents, keen eye, and sense of humor to his writing – both fiction and non-fiction.

Now retired from the film and motion picture industry, Richard is devoting his time to his love of stories – writing adventures for avid readers of fiction. Rich and his beautiful wife Patricia reside in Valencia, California.
