Featured Interview With Dr Donald Fabacher Jr
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was raised in Harahan, LA. A small town on the outskirts of New Orleans. I now live in Harahan a block away from where I grew up. We have plenty of pets. 2 doodles, a goat named Rocky (who inspired the book series I am writing), three main chickens and a bearded dragon.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
Ever since medical school, I felt that I had a knack for writing stories. It started in eighth grade English. But I didn’t start writing professionally until this year. My wife and I have been talking about writing a book about our kids, goat and duck, for a long time. And just recently I found but this is something I could actually do professionally. I started out with writing and producing teaching material for premed and medical students. I also created teaching material for family medicine residents as well. And I have always loved reading to my kids before bedtime, and felt that I would like to bring that back for other families that have reading material with morals and life lessons.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
As of recently, I’ve been reading a lot of material on business I have investments. But in the past I have liked reading the Game of Thrones series and if I had to say my favorite genre, I would have to say it would be famously non-fiction and mystery. I mean going back to my childhood and reading to my kids I would have to say definitely Dr. Seuss Who stories and books have stuck with me through the years and I guess have inspired me to try and write, and that kind of rhyming style.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book is the first and a series of books about a goat name, Rocky and a duck named chippy. This series was inspired by my daughter and sons, pet, goat and duck. They became really good friends and chippy. Would follow Rocky everywhere. They would sleep together and play together. They would aggravate one another. They would get in trouble together. And these stories will tell those tales along with some moral lessons and some other life lessons. We will touch on lessons, such as friendship, work ethic, loyalty, bullying, helping one, another, being friendly to one another, and excepting each other for our differences.
I really hope the series brings back good nighttime and bedtime readings for families with wholesome content
