Scarlett is a prolific writer who systematically melds the fictional world with realistic characters, creating questions of physical being and answering those questions with religious faith. Scarlett fashioned his first book, Tonder, around the idea that one may not stray so far from his faith to not be welcomed back by a loving, forgiving God regardless of past decisions. This premise stems from a strong Catholic upbringing in the rural community of Brownstown, Indiana where Scarlett bases his characters and the storyline itself. The rolling hills and tree-filled landscape of southern Indiana provides the perfect setting for an everyday character to find himself after searching for answers in many of the wrong places. After receiving his Masters degree, Scarlett settled in the Bedford, Indiana area where he and his family live amidst the same landscape depicted in his first novel, Tonder.ver menos
