Finding Fenbendazole

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Finding Fenbendazole: My Unexpected Path Through Cancer 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Roger Rasmussen ✍️
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Finding Fenbendazole: My Unexpected Path Through Cancer” by Roger Rasmussen is a compelling and thought-provoking read. In this book, the author recounts his personal battle with prostate cancer, diagnosed in 2019. The moment he received confirmation of the diagnosis through a biopsy, his life took an unexpected turn.

Following the diagnosis, Roger underwent an MRI that revealed three lesions of varying sizes and aggressiveness. One moment, he was envisioning a victorious recovery; the next, he was calculating how many summers remained. During this turbulent time, Roger discovered Joe Tippens’ blog, Get Busy Living. Within Tippens’ Facebook group, he found a community of brave individuals experimenting with fenbendazole—sharing stories and hope beyond the boundaries of conventional medicine.

Roger also shares the story of his brother, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2024. Remarkably, within five months of treatment—including the use of fenbendazole—all three of his brother’s lesions had disappeared. Over the course of more than two years using fenbendazole himself, Roger observed significant improvements: his tumors shrank, and his tissue markers steadily improved.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in alternative healing paths. Rasmussen’s courage, patience, and dedication to research are deeply inspiring. The real-life accounts he shares challenge conventional medical wisdom and spark curiosity about treatments that, while not FDA-approved, have led to surprising outcomes for many.

Interview with author Vicki M Taylor

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

A1. I’m an award winning author who writes dramatic fiction with strong, unforgettable women characters. I attack the hard issues and bring them to the forefront with a deftness that outshines most authors. I have the ability to sink my teeth into these headline issues and pull the reader in. I spent fifteen years in the corporate world writing computer user manuals and training others how to use computer systems. After a life-threatening illness, I chose to retire and write fiction. I also started my venture of helping others with life challenges. I was a founding member of the Florida Writers Association and a frequent speaker on the craft of writing while continuing to write fiction. Unfortunately, my health issues continued to grow worse, so now I help via social media platforms. My husband and I live in an airport community that provides him the ability to pursue his airplane flying hobby. We have two American Hairless Terriers and a Sun Conure parrot.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book “Shadow Man”?

A2. Deciding which short stories to use and in what order to place them so that they would have the greatest impact on the reader.

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

A3. Stephen King has been like a mentor to me. I’ve adopted his format of less description is better. Nothing can replace the reader’s imagination and by giving just enough description to let them build the world in their mind, the scare is already there.

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

A4. The Florida Keys. Once you cross into Key Largo and drive into the rest of the keys, all the way to Key West. My favorite places among the area are in the Middle Keys of Islamorada and Marathon. It’s like stepping into a Caribbean island. Time doesn’t matter and it’s all about sand and ocean.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book ‘Shadow Man’?

A5. This book was a long time in coming. I didn’t realize throughout the years writing short stories, they’d end up in a collection. Especially a collection like this. To open up my heart and soul and bare it to the reader; the stories were cathartic, at best.

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book ‘Shadow Man’?

A6. The short stories were written over 20 years. The compiling and development of Shadow Man was approximately three months.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. All of my books are in print, ereader, and audio on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/VMT-Books

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘Shadow Man’?

A8. When I was five years old, my adopted father began sexually abusing me in the night. He would come to my room after everyone was asleep. He became known to me as the “shadow man” because it was as if he materialized from the shadows. I tried very hard to stay awake at night, because he wouldn’t do anything if I was awake. It was in this that I developed severe insomnia. The book cover was an abstract impression of my imagination developed by AI.

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

A9. I got very lucky when I was writing novels. They were character driven. And I had very pushy characters. Plus, because I wrote character driven stories, I didn’t know the genre until the end. Which is why you see me with books of various genres. I didn’t try to force myself to write in the same box each time.

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

A10. There is an adage that bounces around the writing world. I belonged to a writing group and another member, who happened to be a NYT bestseller, gave us a piece of advice I pass along to you: Butt in chair. Nothing will get accomplished if the butt isn’t in the chair.

𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: J L Hill ✍️
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Killer With Ice Eyes” by J L Hill is a gripping crime thriller centered around Maria, the formidable leader of the Bright Skies Agency—an elite anti-terrorist and mercenary group. Working alongside her are Barry Thomas, a government intelligence agent, and her father, MoJo.

Maria has just completed a dangerous mission, one that required her to willingly be abducted and endure two weeks of torture while in captivity. She made this sacrifice to allow her BSA team to locate and neutralize their target, Commander Diambu. Once the mercenaries reached the location, they rescued several kidnapped girls and ensured their safe return to their village.

Barry later confronts MoJo about Maria’s increasingly aggressive tactics. He is disturbed by her decision to get herself captured and frustrated that a key arms dealer managed to slip away. MoJo defends his daughter, asserting that Maria has undergone intense training for years and is more than capable of handling herself—even better than Barry. He reminds Barry that the only way to be sure someone is dead is to “look them in the eyes and put a bullet in their head.”

Haunted by the elusive Sgt. Warren, Maria grows more relentless in her pursuit. With no body and no proof of Warren’s death, her past continues to torment her. Barry has begun to feel that Maria is becoming increasingly dangerous as time goes on.

“Killer With Ice Eyes” is a fast-paced, action-packed read that will appeal to fans of strong, fearless female protagonists. J L Hill’s writing is engaging, the cover is striking, and while this book is part of a series, it can easily be enjoyed as a standalone. Discover how far Maria is willing to go to draw Sgt. Warren out of hiding.

Interview with author Chuck Griffith

  1. Please introduce yourself so that the readers will get to know you better.

Hi! I’m Chuck Griffith. I’ve worn a lot of creative hats over the years: designer, filmmaker, and now children’s author. I have a master’s degree in education and used to teach in New York City, which
definitely shaped how I think about kids, learning, and storytelling.

These days I live in Austin, Texas, where I still work in creative fields, but Monty Moves to Honeytown Beach is my first time writing for kids.

  1. What is the inspiration behind your book Monty Moves to Honeytown Beach?

It all started with a simple doodle of a yellow jacket named Monty. I started thinking about what it feels like to be different or not immediately accepted, and how even quiet or overlooked kids have something amazing to offer. Monty’s journey reflects that. He’s kind of introverted, not the loudest voice in the room, but he finds his own way to shine and help others.

  1. When did you realize you wanted to be an author?

I’ve always loved stories, whether through film, design, or the classroom. But the moment I started sketching Monty and imagining his world, I realized I wanted to tell stories just for kids. My background in education definitely pushed me in that direction. I’ve seen firsthand how powerful a good story can be for young minds.

  1. Please tell us something about your book Monty Moves to Honeytown Beach.

It’s the story of Monty, a smart and kind yellow jacket who finds a bee colony in trouble. The bees need help saving Flower Field, but they don’t trust Monty because he’s not one of them. Still, Monty steps up and shows that being different doesn’t mean you can’t make a difference. The illustrations are hand-drawn, and the entire book was made without using any AI tools. It’s a story made with heart, for kids who need a reminder that they can be heroes in their own quiet way.

  1. For which age group is your book Monty Moves to Honeytown Beach suitable?

It’s best for kids aged 4 to 8. The language is approachable for early
readers, and the message is great for starting conversations about kindness, inclusion, and believing in yourself.

  1. What is your favorite quote?

I really love the line, “Just because I’m not a bee doesn’t mean I can’t help.” It captures Monty’s whole journey and mindset. He knows who he is, and he still shows up for others.

  1. What do you like the most about your country?

I appreciate the diversity. There are so many stories, backgrounds, and perspectives here. It’s not always perfect, but that mix of voices is what makes things interesting. It’s something I try to reflect in my creative work.

  1. What suggestion do you want to give to parents of little readers regarding a reading habit?

Make it part of everyday life, and keep it fun. Let kids pick what excites them, and don’t stress about it being “serious.” Some of the best lessons sneak in through silly stories and bedtime reads.

  1. What does literary success look like to you?

If a child finishes Monty and feels a little braver, a little more seen, or just wants to read another book, that’s success. It’s all about connection and impact.

  1. Lastly, who is your inspiration in life and why?

My nieces and nephews have been a huge inspiration. Their energy, questions, and unique little personalities constantly remind me what really matters. They’re the reason I wanted to write something that felt real, kind, and full of heart.

Interview with author Kevin Moonn

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

A1. My name is Kevin Moonn, I’m a first year Creative Writing and English Literature student at the University of East Anglia and I love to write science fiction and fantasy stories. Coming from a Christian background, I aim to apply God’s morals and teachings into every work that I complete. Furthermore, I’m ethnically from India, Kerala, and a lot of The Last Chimaera represents the culture of my community and background.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing your book “The Last Chimaera”?

A2. Some of the physical difficulties that I faced when creating this book was cover designing and a lack of time. As everyone knows, being a university student doesn’t come cheap, therefore, I had to design the cover myself and ask a friend to edit my book. As someone who just came out of surgery recently, I lacked the time to edit/ write my book and design my cover. The medicine made me drowsy and unmotivated, yet I managed somehow! Learning how to design a cover also proved difficult, since this was not my area of expertise. However, I’m happy with the way it came out and the details that I implemented into it, for example the kalarippayattu shield on the ‘R.’

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

A3. Technically, the main ideas weren’t inspired from books exactly but rather anime and manga. Full metal alchemist portrayed the evil that comes from human desire when they try experiment on children and animals. Failed experiments in that anime inspired the creation of chimaeras. However, many books that have inspired my book writing journey are the Hunger Games and Percy Jackson, basic but impactful.

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

A4. When I travel to India, a place that I love seeing is my great grandfather’s and grandmother’s house and back garden. Unlike places like America and England, her back garden is a forest, her house is practically a shack. Though wild animals, like snakes and mosquitoes, wander the forest, it reminds me of the relentless determination my great grandparents had when raising 8 children while taking care of animals like cows and dogs even at an old age, 98 to be exact. The shack is a reminder of their kindness and love. Therefore, despite its dangerous surroundings nowadays, it is still a beautiful place to see.

Q5. What inspired you to write the book ‘The Last Chimaera’?

A5. The inspiration for The Last Chimaera came from an old children’s story my father used to tell me a child, about 2 children, a father and a tiger. They were naughty children who did not obey their parents and lived as they liked. One day they disobeyed their father again and ran away. They encountered a tiger and it pounced on them however, before it could, the father rushed in and saved them. At first, I thought this was a stupid children’s story meant to scare me and make my dad look stronger than he is. But I realised later that parents love us so much that they would jump in the face of danger to protect us. Another inspiring quote is from the Bible, John 15:13, “There is no greater love than this—that a man should lay down his life for his friends.”

Q6. How long did it take you to write your book ‘The Last Chimaera’?

A6. It took me 2 years, not including the writer’s block I had for another 2 years in between. However, it did take a long time because I worked on 2 other books at the same time, a fantasy series that will come out soon – stay tuned.

Q7. On what platforms can readers buy your books?

A7. Amazon and lulu publishing.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘The Last Chimaera’?

A8. The Last Chimaera was chosen as a title with thought behind it. Like any other book, it foreshadows contents of the story and like any title, plays a huge role for the story. It made sure I made my readers question who the last chimaera is. The book designing was more complicated, however. I always knew I wanted the 2 brothers facing each other, and so I did. But every book cover has meaning integrated into it other than just 2 characters. The corn is meant to symbolise the cycle of life and death. The shield on the ‘R’ in the title is meant to foreshadow the underrepresented martial arts, kalarippayattu, as the main fighting technique.

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

A9. Taking inspiration from real life events helped me keep things fresh, as a writer and for my readers. Watching things unfold helps give me new and fresh ideas. Every book is a mixture of interactions and events that have unfolded in the author’s life.

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

A10. Stay consistent. Whether it’s a few words a day or a whole page, consistency is so important.
