Literary journey of an office career escapee
It’s been such a sweet, heart-fluttering experience to return to Everwood Falls. The enchanted elk with their antlers glowing in the dark – too much sugar is bad for anybody, but this is the only spoiler you are getting from me! – and carnivorous spruce trees, prone not only to looming ominously over hikers and...

Well, something doesn’t feel right here. Just a short time ago, I declared the previous book that I’d read in the Americana series to be my absolute all-time favourite. And now I loved the one I’ve just finished so much, racing through its pages like a horse set on winning Royal Ascot, laughing and crying... Continue Reading →

Someone might say that he deserves everything that has happened to him,... Continue Reading →
I’d first read this short story collection some time ago. Life was so hectic then that, although I couldn’t refrain from indulging in my favourite pastime – reading, obviously – I couldn’t keep up with writing reviews for everything that I’d read. And while for some books a short, formal review would suffice, especially for... Continue Reading →

It’s been almost two years since my last podcast or YouTube show appearance. It isn’t a coincidence that in 2025, I also didn’t publish a new book. The reason for the ‘radio silence” is that I’ve been busy writing. And life demands from us that we set priorities. That is, if we wish to get... Continue Reading →
When you think that it cannot get any better, it does – taking your breath away. That’s what happened to me while reading “The Miracles” by Will Tinkham.
