Ruth Hochman is a writer. She was previously a candidate for an MFA in Creative Writing, but was forced to withdraw from the program after only two semesters due to health and family issues. Ruth graduated from American Public University with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. Though she has been doodling since middle school, Ruth began writing seriously in July 1995. She wrote two books of poetry in six weeks that summer. Ruth has dreamed of writing a novel since her early twenties, and made several attempts since 2012. In October 2019, Ruth began writing The Myth of the Ruling Class, an interwoven tale of fact and fiction, past and future, all set in a present-day dystopian 21st century American landscape--the place where ancient paradigms are shattered. The Myth of the Ruling Class is the first book in the Casey & Cody Chronicles series, an episodic and adventurous story of two cosmic spies who interfere in global affairs for the sake of humanity. Aside from her budding career as a novelist, Ruth is an avid reader. She enjoys reading, listening to music, and painting during her downtime. Born and raised in California, Ruth currently lives in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.
