About the author

Joshua Desjardins is a newer author, but he's not new to writing. Having fallen in love with writing stories in elementary school where he grew up in Andover, Massachusetts, Joshua rediscovered the art of writing later in life as a therapeutic passion. This led Joshua to publish his first children's book called, "The Tale of Two Princes." Joshua currently lives in New York City where he dabbles in technology by day and writes at night. Although "On Mondays We Play Bridge" is Joshua's first novel, he only hopes his words will inspire future generations to befriend people of all ages, and even reread when life gets in our way. As an avid gamer, Joshua encourages his readers to never stop playing games in life, even at ninety-nine-years-young.
