Interview with author Joe Wdowski

  1. Hello, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

A1. I identify as a philosophy king trapped in a peon’s body.

Born in the Bronx, I grew up in Westchester County New York, on the Long Island Sound.

I have a B.F.A. in Cinema, minors in Political Science and History (5 years in undergraduate studies.) I have a M.S. Ed. in Education (secondary social studies,) finished all my course work for a Master in History (focusing on Recent Chinese and American.) Afterwards I went to Taipei to study Mandarin Chinese at Taiwan National Normal University for 13 months. I have what I call “survival level” Chinese. Meaning if I am in an only Chinese speaking nation I won’t die.

My education has affected my writing style greatly. My cinema background helps me make my stories entertaining and visual. My Chinese , political science, and history are important tools in my stories by making it deeper and more believable.

My education background makes me not want to only tell an engaging story, but to also give my readers something to “chew on,” to think about what they have read long after they put the book down.

I call my narrative style “3rd person Fog-of-War” It lets the reader discover things with the main character, yet not limiting them only in the thoughts of the main character as 1st person narrative does. My narrative style adds to the mystery and tension of the stories, but gives more than 1st person. The reader, like the main character does not always know the intentions or other characters, or what is around the corner until the protagonist does.

I have taught university most of my life. I have taught over 5000 students in the United States as an adjunct professor and a full-time professor at a Taiwan university of eight years, and at a Medical University in Chongqing China for Three years. I have always written my own lessons. I had a textbook published in Taiwan to teach English at the University level along with academic papers of teaching methods. I have taught the following courses: History of Invention and Technology, American History, Intro to Western Civ., European History 1500 – 1815, Cinema History, Media Literacy, Speech Writing and Public Speaking, English Communications I and II, and Medical English.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book “Not For Boys”?

A2. In the story the main character Nathaniel, a 12-year-old boy, moves into a renovated New England factory on a small river that he is told by the locals is haunted. He is warned by the landlord not to enter the south wing of the building. That it is “Not For Boys.” He learns of Her the ghost of a girl that had worked and died on the waterwheel of the factory.

It took me years to discover what was made in the factory over 150 years ago. I wanted to be something that realistic for the times, but may cause negative judgment from the modern reader. One theme of the book is not to judge the past from our modern lens. It is important to better understand those before us, to understand the times they lived in.

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

A3. The writers I have enjoyed the most have been Asimov, Welles, Tolkien, George Orwell, Harry Turtledove, Hemingway, and Rod Serling.

Film directors have also been a major impact on my writing, such as John Ford, Federico Fellini, Sergio Leone, Kubrick, Hitchcock, John Huston, Orson Welles, Ridley Scott, and Akira Kurosawa. Many that have read my stories say they can imagine them on the big screen. I want my stories to be visual.

I also read a lot of non-fiction; history, philosophy, cultural studies, tactics, political science, biographies, autobiographies, and hard science. It is very important that my stories are solid, logical, and believable. I want my readers, especially for my hard Sci-Fi stories, to feel they have entered a living breathing world.

Q4. What’s your favourite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

A4. I really like New England and the Long Island Sound area. I love the water and the change of seasons. Having lived in subtropical places for so many years, like Chongqing, China and Taipei, Taiwan, I missed the change of seasons.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book ‘The Strange Monkey of Dot Island’?

A5. It is actually a story I first wrote for classmates when we were in elementary school. I was inspired by ‘Curious George’ and my friends seemed to like the strange monkey more so I wrote more. Decades later I rewrote it with my experiences of living in Asia. The story makes a strong contrast between the individual vs. the group, tradition vs. innovation, and learning from nature.

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book ‘The Girl That Never Washes her Hair’?

A6. I first got the premise when my daughter was arguing with my granddaughter to wash her hair. I had been thinking about it for years. It is a short piece meant to be a children’s picture book. When I finally decided to put it down on paper it took less than two weeks.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. At the moment I am not selling my books.
If readers would like they can read me for free.
I produced free read along audio books of several of my completed stories and of one that is progress ‘The Last of the Twenty.’ on my YouTube channel (J. N. Wdowski @joewdowski7806) https://www.youtube.com/@joewdowski7806 My longer works are presented in easily digestible 8-to-10-minute segments.

I hope readers will come and enjoy my works and subscribe, comment, like, and share. I am looking into turning my stories into EPUB and MOBI versions, and want to make them into hard print books. Until then if readers would like free PDF versions of any of my stories they can email me at jwdowski@hotmail.com I would be very happy to share.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘The Wolf and the Little Pig’?

A8. The story is of a little pink pig who transforms a hungry wolf into a “gentleman wolf.” The story highlights the importance of true romantic love vs. animal argues. To advocates for us to better ourselves from our primal instincts in a fun way. So the cover is of a cute little pink pig.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

A9. I write what I enjoy reading. I like entertaining stories, believable characters, thought provokes works, and something I can learn from (I do a lot of research for my stories,) and love twist endings that are surprising, but logical within the frame work of the stories.

For my science fictions, four short stories ‘A.S.,’ ‘My Name is Robert,’ ‘The Days Before Landfall,’ and ‘Ambassador Ford,’ along with my novels ‘For Whom the Gods Fear,’ and my work in progress ‘The Last of the Twenty,’ is very important to me that they are original and creative, yet founded in believable worlds. I feel it makes my stories interesting and fun to read.

Q10. What is the most valuable piece of advice you’ve been given about writing?

A10. “Keep writing.” Which I am doing, there is a lot more to come from me. I have several psychological thrillers and romances that I will be turning into short stories and novels.

Mayday’s Cat-tastic Escapades

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Mayday’s Cat-tastic Escapades” penned by the author Randa Abdulkarim is an adventurous read. The main character of the story is Mayday, the mischievous Bengal cat. Mayday looks like a leopard and a jaguar. She runs like a cheetah and a puma. She prowls like a panther and a cougar.

She swims like a fishing cat. Sometimes, Mayday hides like a snow leopard. Her super long whiskers help her to sense the world so she knows what to do. I loved the cat-spirit and playful personality of Mayday. 

The illustrations are pretty and would catch kids’ attention. The writing style of the author is nice and the cover photo is eye-catching. Through this book, kids would learn about the different cat breeds. 

This book is suitable for kids of the age group 3-10 years. I strongly recommend it for little ones. They would have a great time following the escapades of Mayday.

Interview with author Edwin O. Paña

Q1. Hello, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

A1. My name is Edwin O. Paña, and I am an author, essayist, and poet with a passion for exploring wisdom, fraternity, and purpose through writing. As a lifelong learner and observer of human experiences, my work often reflects on themes of enlightenment, brotherhood, and environmental sustainability. I am also an Upsilonian, a proud member of Upsilon Sigma Phi, which has deeply influenced my perspectives on leadership, service, and camaraderie. My latest book, Echoes of Light: Essays and Reflections, is a collection of thought-provoking pieces that illuminate the many facets of life, knowledge, and shared experiences.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book Echoes of Light?

A2. One of the biggest challenges was curating and refining decades of reflections into a cohesive collection that resonates with both new and seasoned readers. Since my essays touch on a wide range of topics—from philosophy to fraternity, from personal growth to sustainability—I had to carefully balance diversity of themes while maintaining a unifying voice throughout the book. Another challenge was ensuring that my insights remain timeless yet relevant, bridging wisdom from past experiences with the evolving realities of today’s world.

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

A3. My writing has been deeply influenced by a blend of literary, philosophical, and thought-provoking works. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essays on transcendentalism and self-reliance have shaped my reflective approach. José Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines, instilled in me the power of words in shaping national consciousness. Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet and Mitch Albom’s works also influenced my ability to weave wisdom into poetic and narrative forms. Additionally, my fraternity’s motto, “We Gather Light to Scatter,” has always inspired me to use writing as a medium for enlightenment.

Q4. What’s your favorite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

A4. The Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines hold a special place in my heart. Beyond their breathtaking beauty, they are a testament to the ingenuity, resilience, and harmony of the ancestors with nature. Standing atop those terraces, I am reminded of the interconnectedness of past, present, and future—a theme that echoes in my writing. The terraces are not just a UNESCO heritage site; they are a metaphor for how wisdom, much like the terraces, is built layer by layer over time.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book Echoes of Light?

A5. The inspiration for Echoes of Light stems from a deep desire to preserve and share insights gathered over the years. It is a tribute to the mentors, fraternity brothers, and life experiences that have shaped my journey. The book is also an extension of my belief that knowledge and wisdom should not be hoarded but shared—like light being scattered to illuminate others. In many ways, the book is my legacy in written form, one that I hope will guide, challenge, and inspire others.

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book Echoes of Light?

A6. While the actual compilation and refinement process took several months, the thoughts and reflections within Echoes of Light have been decades in the making. Many of these essays were written over years of contemplation, personal experiences, and interactions with thought leaders, mentors, and fellow fraternity brothers. The final stages—editing, structuring, and publishing—took about a year to complete.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. Echoes of Light: Essays and Reflections is available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover, and eBook formats. Readers can also visit my official book website, TheEchoesOfLight.com, for more information, excerpts, and reviews.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title Echoes of Light.

A8. The title Echoes of Light was inspired by the Upsilon Sigma Phi motto, “We Gather Light to Scatter.” It represents the idea that wisdom and knowledge should not remain stagnant but should be passed on, reverberating like echoes across time. The book cover was designed to visually capture this essence, featuring elements of light, reflection, and depth, symbolizing the illuminating power of thoughts and insights shared within the book.

Q9. When writing a book, how do you keep things fresh for both your readers and yourself?

A9. The key to keeping writing fresh is constant exploration and reflection. I draw from personal experiences, current events, and historical insights, blending them in a way that remains engaging. I also challenge myself to ask new questions, rethink perspectives, and infuse storytelling into essays to keep them relatable. Engaging with diverse readers and fraternity brothers also helps keep my perspectives dynamic and evolving.

Q10. What is the most valuable piece of advice you’ve been given about writing?

A10. The best advice I received is: “Write with authenticity, not for approval.” Readers can sense when writing is forced or insincere. True impact comes when you write from a place of passion, wisdom, and truth. Another piece of advice that resonates with me is from Ernest Hemingway, who said, “There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.” Writing, at its core, is about pouring oneself onto the page—vulnerably and truthfully.

It’s All In The Lyrics

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: It’s All In The Lyrics 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Tony Kessel ✍️
.
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“It’s All In The Lyrics: How Music Helped Me Heal and Find My Voice” is a must-read for memoir enthusiasts. This book beautifully illustrates how music became a lifeline for the author, shaping his path through pain and healing.

Tony’s story begins with hardship—his parents divorced before his first birthday, leaving him to process difficult emotions from an early age. Music became his solace, helping him navigate the confusion of his fractured family. When his father remarried, Tony was placed in foster care, a turning point that deepened his connection to certain songs. Dan Seals’ ‘Meet Me in Montana’ song could be related to the moment when Tony’s foster parents’ adult kids traveled in a separate vehicle during the trips. Among the many songs referenced in the book, my personal favorite is Tim McGraw’s Please Remember Me.

As Tony matured, music remained his guide through love, loss, and self-discovery. His storytelling is engaging, and his writing style makes the emotions in his journey feel real and relatable. The book’s title is fitting, and the cover design complements its theme beautifully. Reading this memoir reinforced my belief in the transformative power of music—it’s not just sound; it’s a force that can shape and heal lives.

Interview with author Robert Echols

Q1. Hello, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

A1. Mr. Echols grew up in Exeter, NH and was educated at the prestigious Phillips Exeter Academy. He received his B.A. from New York University and his J.D./M.B.A from Emory University.

Mr. Echols served in the U.S. Army as an enlisted man from 1973 to 1976, subsequently as an active duty Army attorney (JAG Corps) at the United States Military Academy at West Point from 1982-1986.

Mr. Echols later served as an attorney and ethics/compliance officer for several Defense contractors, ultimately retiring in that capacity as Director of Business Conduct for Monsanto.

Thereafter, Mr. Echols served as Founder and President of the For Our Friends the Animals Foundation, an eleemosynary entity he created and funded that constructed animal shelters and rescues.

A cancer survivor, Mr. Echols now frequently blogs on a reverence for life on LinkedIn and is authoring a four-volume treatise on that topic under the title: For Our Friends the Animals.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book “For Our Friends the Animals”?

A2. The most difficult obstacle was overcoming a worry that I was not worthy of attempting to carry on Albert Schweitzer’s tradition. In the end, while admitting and coming to grips with my status as mere epigone, I came to the conclusion that picking up the torch and doing my best would be exactly what Dr. Schweitzer would want me to do, would want each of us to do.

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

A3. All books by Albert Schweitzer; The Divine Milieu by Teilhard de Chardin; everything by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Q4. What’s your favourite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

A4. I enjoy my home state of New Hampshire. Though having been “discovered”, it still remains an unparalleled locale of serenity, a blessed mixture of human history and natural beauty.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book ‘For Our Friends the Animals’?

A5. While growing up I was vaguely aware of Albert Schweitzer, but as an adult I read a detailed article about the man and was most impressed by his erudition, academic accomplishments, literary skills, and most of all his compassion, a compassion he evidenced all through his life. That article detailed his ethos of a reverence for life, the firm tenet that all life is possessed of innate worth and value, that no life may be downgraded in worth to serve as a mere means to some human end, that our sacred duty as mankind is to embody a reverence for life by serving as stewards to all nature, all life, all God’s creation. Bringing that idea to as wide an audience as possible became my life’s work and shall remain so until I pass on.

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book ‘For Our Friends the Animals’?

A6. The book required one year from start to finish, as the spirit of Jesus moved me to write, emend, and rewrite until I thought I had done the best I could. There are three more volumes coming, and their gestation periods are likely to be of the same length, depending on whether I can keep my lymphoma in remission.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. As far as I know the book is available from all e-tailers, including but not limited to Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Some editions have also turned up on eBay!

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘For Our Friends the Animals’?

A8. The title stems from a prayer attributed to Dr. Schweitzer entitled: A Prayer for the Animals. Here are the first two lines: “ Hear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends, the animals,…”

I wanted the cover to reflect that prayer, that sentiment pictorially. I also love the Latin language, so used the Latin for reverence for life, i.e. reverentia vitae, at the top of the animals.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

A9. I pray for the spirit of Jesus to infuse itself in me and guide my heart and brain. With Jesus as my coach, freshness is assured.

Q10. What is the most valuable piece of advice you’ve been given about writing?

A10. Be yourself and write from your heart and soul. No matter how long it takes, if you comply with that dictum somebody will seek the words of wisdom you’ve penned.

“How Was Your Day?: How Will Your Tomorrow Be?” by Pa Co is a beautifully written and sketched book that encourages young readers to reflect on their emotions, actions, and connections.

This thoughtful story invites children to explore their feelings—whether happiness, sadness, frustration, or excitement—while understanding that every emotion has value and meaning. It also prompts them to think about what brings them joy today and what they can look forward to tomorrow.

Interview with author Tony Kessel

Q1. Hello, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

A1. Of course! My name is Tony Kessel, author of It’s All In The Lyrics: How Music Helped Me Heal and Find My Voice. I currently live in Albuquerque, NM with my wife and 5 children. Writing (and other artistic endeavors) are a side gig to my full-time job with the New Mexico Army National Guard. As I discuss in my book, my biggest hobby is music: listening to it, playing it, writing, and recording.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book “It’s All In The Lyrics”?

A2. Writing this book was cathartic. It was a large part of my journey to better mental health. Unfortunately, I had to open some old wounds to provide the level of artistic honesty this project required. I like the process of breaking a bone to ensure that it heals correctly. It’s painful, but in the long run, what your body needs for recovery.

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

A3. For this project, I gleaned inspiration from the nostalgic vibes of The Wonder Years and A Christmas Story. My writing was more influenced by lyricists than anything else: Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), Jesse Hasek (10 Years), Kevin Matisyn (Evan’s Blue/Parabelle), Ryan Clark (Demon Hunter), Justin Furstenfeld (Blue October), and Elliott Smith. There were several times during the writing process that I had to scale back my use of lyrical devices.

Q4. What’s your favourite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

A4. If I’m honest, I really miss being back home in North Dakota. There’s this small lake near where I went to college that I would visit during my developmental years that brought me peace. There’s a part of me that wishes I could go back to Patterson Lake when I need to do some deep soul searching.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book ‘It’s All In The Lyrics’?

A5. I grew up a huge Garth Brooks fan. After attending one of his concerts in 2017, I had a three hour car drive. The nostalgia of listening to his music as a kid caused me to reflect back on life and the musical journey I’ve taken since. To process the feelings, I built a song a day playlist from May 2017 to April 2018, putting a blog entry together for every song. Once the project ended, I decided to copy/paste the entries into a Word document and read it. It was really rough, but I decided that with a little work it could be worthy of publication.

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book ‘It’s All In The Lyrics’?

A6. It’s All In The Lyrics took me a year to write. To bring it to its current form, I edited it 7 times over a 6-year period. Throughout that time, I wasn’t just editing the book. I was getting healthy from a mental health standpoint and trying to establish the identity that I so desperately sought for many years.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. It’s available in most places: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple, Google Books, Kobo, etc. in ebook format, print, and hard cover. I’m currently in the middle of recording the audiobook, which will go out on all major audiobook platforms, as well.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘It’s All In The Lyrics’?

A8. I designed the cover during the pandemic while I was activated for COVID relief efforts. The word cloud on the left side of my body was generated using the lyrics of some of my favorite songs. It took a really long time due to having to learn Adobe PhotoShop and InDesign.

As for the title, It’s All In The Lyrics is quite literal. I’ve spent most of my life searching for greater purpose through the lyrics blaring from my various media players. While the book discusses the impact of each piece, there is an accompanying playlist that comes with the book. There are several occasions where I don’t go into depth about certain emotions, but let the song I refer to fill in the gaps. Kinda like an Easter egg hunt of sorts. I really want to give readers an interactive experience that causes them to reflect on their own soundtrack.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

A9. For this project, I just kept consuming music like I always do. The teleportive quality music possesses stirred up emotions that allowed myself to dwell in to capture the sentiment I was aiming for. Like I said before, it was very painful at times; however, it never lacked a fresh perspective.

Q10. What is the most valuable piece of advice you’ve been given about writing?

A10. The “show, don’t tell” nightmare is real. There is a fantastic TedTalk entitled “The Clues to a Great Story” by Andrew Stanton that was immensely helpful during the editing phase. Stanton says, “The audience wants to work for their meal. They just don’t want to know that they’re doing that.” Any time I caught myself in the deep tracks of mansplaining, I leaned heavily on this concept.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Jeff Pedigo’s City Zoo: An Unfairy Story transports readers into a fascinating world where animals have taken control. In this zoo-turned-kingdom, the animals see humans as “The Most Dangerous Animals In The World.” Following a successful revolution, they have ousted humans and established a society governed entirely by animals, where every creature reigns as its own ruler.

At the heart of this tale is Gus, a gilded elephant who fondly remembers his days in the circus, enjoying the company of people—an opinion that makes him unpopular among his fellow zoo inhabitants. Meanwhile, the donkeys and monkeys are plotting to replace the leadership in the upcoming elections. But what is the true plan of the monkeys?

This book offers a compelling narrative with a fresh and imaginative storyline. Pedigo’s writing keeps readers engaged, eager to uncover the next twist. The cover design complements the story well, and the title perfectly captures its essence. If you’re looking for a unique and thought-provoking read, City Zoo is a book worth picking up.
