Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
My name is Manh Dang. I’m a hematologist-oncologist at the Clearview Cancer Institute in Huntsville, Alabama. I am married and have four grown children. I was born in Vietnam and immigrated to the U.S.A. at the end of the Vietnam war era. We are babysitting a poodle and a hairless cat that belong to our children (until they’re ready to take them back).
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I’m a really late bloomer. I enjoy reading books since my 20s but didn’t start writing until just a few years ago.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Max Lucado, John Eldredge, Bob Goff, are some of my favorite authors. My favorite genre is Christian non-fiction. My friends, family, patients and staff at work and God’s love and creations inspire my writings.
