What is Dystopian Literature?

When I set out to write the America II trilogy, I wasn’t thinking in terms of a genre, especially not a genre within a genre. Sci-fi-speculative-futuristic-political-thriller-dystopian and all those labels were something I hadn’t anticipated. I merely entertained the idea: If societal trends that exist today continue full speed…

During Nicholas's journey, the reader finds that he is being fostered by Miss Boudreaux.  When I was writing this novel, I sometimes contemplated, "What if The Bum never moved in with Miss Boudreaux?" 



Would Nicholas stay until legal age and take care of his foster brothers and sisters? Or, would he run away regardless and start a new life?  It's hard to say, because if you've read the story, Miss Boudreaux's love interest, aka "The Bum" is the catalyst for…

A GIFT TO MAKIND…. A KING WHO WALKED AMONG US

Spoken of by the prophets 2,000 years before his birth.  Being sent to a lost and dying world to set right what Adam had failed to do.  A plan by Almighty God to restore your relationship with himself.  The ’cornerstone’ which would become the stumbling block to many.

Where is the Messiah? …

 In a few weeks, Helping Hands Press will begin publishing a new series

that I'm writing called Amish Circle Letters. As many of you may know

(or not), the Amish do not have access to computers and certainly not

social media. My readers often ask me how they stay in touch with each

other since they don't use computers. The concept of…

Writing stories, whether for children's fiction or adults can be rewarding in many ways. For starters, as a writer I get to share my vision of characters and far away lands full of mystery and fantasy. Another reason, is gaining a following for my stories which is a…

Eventually the entire series will be at these links as well.  Ideally by the September Long Weekend.

What is your connection to the Amish?

 I live ½ hour away from Smicksburg, PA, a large Old Order Amish settlement. I shop at their stores and we hired Amish men to help remodel our century old farmhouse. It’s been fifteen years of remodeling, (still not done…) so we got to know many men and…

GOD HAS SET YOU APART

Has your life been well spent?

Nobody ever said it would be easy. Nobody ever said it was always going to be fun. Nobody promised me that after spending twenty-plus years holed up in my office writing novels that anyone would ever read them. Nobody promised me anything would ever come of my writing and yet I still do it. Day after day, year after year, I sit in front of this keyboard and tap out the characters and worlds inside my mind. To date, I think I have more than sixty unique, fully-fleshed characters in all twelve…

Steve Kowalski was many things: husband, father, engineer, software consultant, and life-long agnostic.  But things changed.  His son blamed him for his wife’s untimely death and three years of living in denial shattered his world.  He was lost until he met Brock, an explorer, sent by an ancient, star-faring race called the Guardians, who has come to…
