1. What inspired you to write this book? God and my Lord And savior Jesus Christ laid this on my heart to write this book. I did not start on it immediately but it kept being pressed upon my heart.
2. What exactly is it about — and who is it written for? This is a simple story about the birth of a baby named Jesus in a simple easy-to-read format. Made for parents to read to their children and children who are learning and can read ages 2-10
3. What do you hope readers will get out of reading your book? An understanding and realization for all readers of who and why Jesus came to this world- Out of Love and want to reconnect you with your Creator God/Yahweh
4. How did you decide on your book’s title and cover design? My 9 year-old daughter helped me design the cover along with my wife. The title was just simple question raised by the child.
5. What advice or words of wisdom do you have for fellow writers – other than run!? It is a commitment and an expense to do this especially if you need illustration and cannot draw.
6. What trends in the book world do you see -- and where do you think the book publishing industry is heading? I see people are seeking truth which can be hard to find. This book is filled with the truth of the Bible but in a quick and easy to read and understand format.
7. Were there experiences in your personal life or career that came in handy when writing this book? I am a father, volunteer Pastor and volunteer chaplain for the fire and EMS service and EMT. It is simply the start of faith and reconnecting to God who created you, loves you and died and rose again just for you!
8. How would you describe your writing style? Which writers or books is your writing similar to? Mt writing style is simple and easy-to-read. This book can easily be a new tradition every Christmas to read.
9. What challenges did you overcome in the writing of this book? Finances. It cost more than I expected and sales have been slow so far. I have sold about 125 books to date.
10. If people can buy or read one book this week or month, why should it be yours? This is a timeless new classic that is essential for everyone's salvation through Jesus Christ. This is the story of His birth and the reason He came to this world John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
About The Author: I am Minister, volunteer Fire & EMS Chaplain and EMT, and a devoted father and husband. I felt God wanted me to write this book and lead me to publish it. Though I do not know where my writings will lead, I stepped out in faith to do this. It is being worked on and translated into Arabic for distribution in the Middle East.
