Welcome!

The author at a Paris cafe.

Welcome to my website!

I'm pleased to have this website to present my works. I'm also happy to say that my most recent book, "The Soul Grows in Darkness: A Memoir," is now in print. It is available through iUniverse.com, barnes&noble.com, amazon.com, and borders.com. Please let me know what you think of it.
I am working on two new manuscripts: "Four Pillars of Happiness: Coping with yourself, Others, Your Past, and God." The other is "Erastes: The Unconscious Mind of the Pedophile."
Another bit of news, my "Sixteen Men: Understanding Masculine Personality Types" is now published in Korean.

I hope you'll take a few minutes and read about my books.

"Loren Pedersen's latest book, The Soul Grows in Darkness, is not only his own remarkable story of surviving a life of profound adversity, but a hopeful and inspiring challenge to readers to discover psychological and spiritual meaning in their own suffering by finding love and God within themselves. A courageous book by a courageous man."

Richard Carlson, Ph.D.
Best-selling author of "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff and it's all small stuff."
