It Is Book Signing Time At My Library

Last April we (Friends of the East Orange Library) held our first "Romance Symposium and Book Signing." It was extremely successful thanks to authors Donna Hill and Gwyneth Bolton. Donna Hill's name is known far and wide and everyone was excited that she would be one of the authors to grace our library. Gwyneth is a new up and coming author who has found a large x-generation audience. It was a good mix. Donna Hill was as nice (and generous) as I remembered her to be almost 15 years ago. Hill is… Continue

Book Review: The Morning Gift

SPOLIERS! Don't say I did not warn you. Eva Ibbotson's novels were known to me as works of the fantastic. That is why, I was pretty surprised when I discovered, in all places -- at Powerbooks, Cebu, her romance novels. All three of them were displayed alongside chiclit and YA books in the Juvenile section of the bookstore. It was The Morning Gift that intrigued me most. Ruth, a Catholic young lady of Jewish decent had to marry thirty year old Quinton Somerville, a British professor and paleont… Continue

When a Thriller Comes with a Point of View

It’s risky. While some readers may love every aspect of your story and praise it, some of your critics may disapprove. They may hold opposing political views, and thus, may not appreciate the way you depict your good guy, whom they like to perceive as the one with the timeless, evil soul. When your bad guy is the president of Iran and your reader is the Ayatollah he will find faults with every aspect of your story starting with the characters, whom he will define as stereotypes or caricatures,… Continue

Behind the Writing of 72 Virgins

People keep asking. “What drove you to write 72 Virgins?” Why—after a long career as a professor in the academia, followed by a hi-tech stint as a technology chief—suddenly an author—a fiction writer. What happened? My latest novel, 72 Virgins, carries a message, a prediction. Islamic terror is about to explode in the US. It’s a fact. Imagine. Attacks were thwarted even on the day the book was released. The real question is not whether Jihad terrorists’ plots will ever cease to emerge—there is… Continue
