Literary journey of an office career escapee
It is incredibly hard to write about the book that for decades has been among your favourites. The book, which you’ve reread quite a few times, at different periods of your life, every time finding something new. The controversy surrounding the book complicates matters even further.

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. It is the fifth book of his Americana series that I’ve read, and, although I loved the other four and will definitely reread them at some point,... Continue Reading →

True friendship, like true love, according to Erich Fromm, is based on care, responsibility, respect, and knowledge. Such a powerful bond goes far deeper than chatting, sharing... Continue Reading →
Just as it happened with each book of the Americana series by Will Tinkham, after finishing “The Teddy & Bara Show”, I immediately wanted to grab the next one and keep on reading. It is a futile endeavour to try to retell the plot. Its structure is so unique, and there is so much more... Continue Reading →
At a lavish party, pieces of jewellery disappear at an alarming rate. The hosts are appalled. The guests are distraught. What was supposed to be a dignified, old-fashioned reception, where everyone had a role to play and the etiquette formalities to follow, turns into a chase after secrets. Katie Porter is young and pretty. She... Continue Reading →
“The Accidental Cop” is a Category Winner in the 2025 Independent Author Awards. It feels especially gratifying that my cross-genre crime noir novel, with the setting unknown to most readers, has finally found its niche, winning in the “Social / Political Change” category in the 2025 Independent Author Awards. “The Accidental Cop” already won several...
