In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Amanda Knackstedt on her book Dragon's Heart (June 21, 2023)

‘You have much sorrow and trouble ahead of you.’

Princess Rina V of Occorom has been promised in marriage to Prince Hangree of Airegla. But as he’s vain, selfish, and greedy, not to mention a sore loser, she’s sure that won’t end well. So, as any self-respecting princess would, she runs away. It is in the wilds of the ancient mountains that she meets Roozan, a wise and hospitable dragon, and for the first time, she feels at home. Life in the mountains is simple and beautiful, but dangerous as well, and it isn’t long before Rina meets other magical inhabitants of the forest. Ogres, elves, and a tyquin monsineis all point to a warning etched in Rina’s very being: she is living in a time-bomb of an enchantment and the clock is ticking. Her life is split in two as she discovers one past is a secret and the other is a lie, and she can’t bind them together into a single future. As time catches up with her, she must decide which path to follow, which part of her she can bear to lose, and where her home truly is.

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Ronda Chervin on her book 77 Soundbytes of Love (June 7, 2023)

This book is an anthology of soundbytes — 77 to be exact — drawn from almost one hundred philosophical works of Ronda Chervin written over the past half century. Why 77? It’s a number signifying the triumph of the spirit over matter and the personal freedom to pursue things of interest. That’s the goal for our readers – to set their souls free to partake in a spiritual journey to a more authentic self. Readers will engage a soundbyte a day, journaling as they go, trying to live by the spiritual truth expressed over the course of their time with it before advancing to the next soundbyte.

Prayer to St. JosephHail Sweet and Darling Joe!
Your love for your Son, Jesus and your spouse, Mary is so efficacious!
Teach me to love them!
Help me to serve Jesus as you did.
In times of pain and doubt, may I feel your protection and closeness,
And guide me in the right path.
Intercede for me to your Son, the Incarnate Word!
At the hour of my death, take me to your Son, my Beloved,
So that I may die with your holy arms around me,
And rejoice in heaven with you, your Son, Mother Mary and all the saints forever.
Amen. ―Sr. Helena

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Lawrence Hopperton on his poetry book Mark on the Line: ​On the sinking of the Marques, June 3, 1984 by Lawrence Hopperton

Mark on the Line is centred on the grief author Larry Hopperton endured – endures – in the aftermath of the devastating 1984 loss of the sailing ship Marques, a vessel whose doomed souls he knew intimately, having lived on board with them a few years earlier. Readers of Hopperton’s previous work will recognize here his strong affinity for the sea, but here the sea is front and center in all her ambiguity as nurturer and killer, lover and destroyer. That finicky duality is where Hopperton is most at home as a poet, and these poems – many of them worked over for decades – leave no doubt as to his ability as a craftsman of the highest order.

In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Marguerite Peeters on her book The Globalization of the Western Cultural Revolution. (June 1, 2023)

A new ethic, secularist in its radical aspects, has spread like wildfire all over the world since the end of the cold war. This ethic is the fruit of the Western feminist, sexual and cultural revolutions and of the long march of the West towards post-modernity. In the West, the revolution is achieving its chief objectives and even seems to have reached the point of self-destruction. But for a generation, the battle line has moved to the non-Western world. This manual aims to provide educators with the information they need to acquire, in the light of the eternal law written by God himself in the heart of all men and women, the knowledge and the discernment of the key concepts and operational mechanisms of the globalization of the western cultural revolution. It also seeks to encourage our friends in the non-Western world to be faithful to who they are and, by remaining themselves, to offer the world a leadership that is specific to them and that is already awaited by all those who wish to go back to reality, truth and love.

Being a private detective in the border town of the Faerie and Mundane worlds isn’t easy, even for a dragon like Vern. Still, finding the wayward brother of a teary damsel in distress shouldn’t have gotten so dangerous.

However, this is no ordinary trinket—with a little magic power, it could control all of mankind.
