Featured Interview With Sophia Lambton

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was raised (and live) in London. I have a cat called Luca who is King of the Universe.

At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
1) Probably eight. 2) Around eleven.

Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Vladimir Nabokov, James Joyce, Stefan Zweig, Marcel Proust. They all inspire me, and so do many films and tv series.

Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest (and first) book is the first instalment of a saga. I seem to have trouble scribing standalone novels. Anyhow, it’s centred on sororal twins in 1930s (eventually 1940s) London, who couldn’t be more different and mistakenly believe each other to be soulless. It plays with strange, addictive bonds of all stripes.

Featured Interview With Shannon Matter

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I live in the beautiful, supernatural province of British Columbia, Canada.
Love to travel and spend time in nature. Spiritual woman with a love of exercise and healthy living.
Little bit rebellious, my music and books have some strong messages for humankind. Every human has so much potential and too many humans aren’t reaching for or using all their potential, so I like to assist with bringing that out in people or helping them realize their own inner power by listening to my songs or reading my writings.

At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
We had a book reading train on the wall in my grade one classroom. The wall was chalkboard size and we could put pushpins into it.
For every book we read and did a small report on, we got to add another train car to our train.
My Mom helped me and every night I read a book and made a report. My train went across the entire wall. Some kids had 10 train cars or so, but most of the kids had only a few train cars.
Looking back I can see how much I loved reading and why I became an author.

Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Barbara Hand-Clow
Patricia Cori
Graham Hancock
David Wilcock
Taoist writings
Anything non mainstream about Egypt and the Maya
North American and South American Native and Aboriginal Literature

Tell us a little about your latest book?
Streaky the Comet, Book Three is a page turner.
Streaky is a loving, happy comet usually but he gets himself into some trouble in this book so he has to access all his inner bravery and fight with a new friend to save himself, his friend, and some other beings.
Its best to read the whole series.
Book Four will be on Amazon Kindle by late autumn/early winter 2022.

Featured Interview With Robert Pardi

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born to a typical lower middle class Italian-American family in New York City. Yet, I was also born with the travel bug, partly because my paternal grandmother always advised me to experience life as well as my having grown up with an alcoholic father – therefore, I fantasized about “getting away”. I have lived in Arizona, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Rome, and now live in the same small Italian village my great grandfather immigrated from at the beginning of the 1900’s.

At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I had always been interested in book for as long as I can remember. To me they represented a way to easily escape a rather difficult childhood. While I did love to write stories when I was a child, it was frowned upon as not something for boys and that passion was pushed deep inside. Yet, I continued to read and was blessed to marry a woman who loved books as much as I did. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer before her 31st birthday I started journaling. After she passed I found that journaling wanting to become something more as I had learned so many valuable lessons such as living in a state of Joy regardless of adversity, surrender, resilience and the value of ordinary moments. That led me, with the help of a good friend to write my first book, Chasing Life, which is dedicated to my amazing wife.

Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Honestly, there are too many to mention because I find something in every book I read. That said, someone I return to often is Richard Bach. Paulo Coelho’s Alchemist is another book which captivates me every time I read it. I also am a big fan of biographies and true stories such as Touching the Void and Unbroken. Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 is spectacular. Other authors which I enjoy reading are Robin Sharma, and other Modern-Day fable authors. My guilty pleasure are spy novels such as those by Daniel Silva.

Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book is called a Pimby Tale, which is a Modern-Day Fable about a boy who is taken into the land of imagination to learn life lessons. I believe, as adults, the loss of our childlike enthusiasm is detrimental and this book is about reconnecting to that part of ourselves while being reminded of important life skills and lessons. PIMBY stands for Possibility, Imagination, Magic, Believe, and YOU.

My soon to be released book, mid May 2022, is called Possibility in Action – which is my life’s philosophy. It is a gathering of what I call “musings” which are playful moments of reflection. Pondering concepts similar to those shared in my new book led me to those wonderful Ah-ha moments that helped wake me up to living my life intentionally and authentically. If we strip it down to its essence, Possibility in Action is the code with which a hero’s journey is written. It is understanding that life is to be lived in the here and now. There is no waiting. There is no right moment. There is only action – NOW – and this book is comprised of 52 musings and specific journaling prompts to shift perspective and stimulate greater self-awareness.

My latest book was inspired by a dream I had years ago about two worlds that were separated by an invisible barrier, our world which is called Seer and the world beneath which is called Lowe each have different unique abilities. The Lowes are unique by their hybrid creatures such as a half lion-shark and the like and the Seers are unique by their magical abilities. After hundreds of years a man finds himself through the portal into The Lowe’s land, he must now learn their ways and figure out how to return to his world. It took me years to finally complete it and release it.
