Brendan Conboy I'm currently working on 9 different projects, which are:
1-4. Recording 4 audio books - Rhyme Time, The Golden Thread, Issues and The Invasion of the Mimics.
5. Preparation for official launch and celebration of my recently published, RHYME TIME - a book of poems & spoken word.
6. The Land of Make Believe- a short rhyming children's book, which I wrote in 2 days, now collaborating with an illustrator. The story includes dragons, unicorns, flying pigs, a king, a queen, a prince, a castle and a wizard. It is based on the story of doubting Thomas.
7. ONE GOD Many Names - a book that looks at meditating on the names and titles of God. I share my own thoughts and meditation for many of the names.
8. Is this my Ministry? - A collaborative book with multiple true stories of people that felt called by God into a particular ministry and how they coped with the struggles.
9. Finally, I am in the research stage for my next novel. This is the second in the MIMICS series, called The Legacy of the MIMICS.

Brendan Conboy Ah, this answer is very simple. I pray and I wait. The words that I then write, I believe are downloaded into my head from God. Yes, you guessed it, I am a Christian. No, absolutely not, I'm not BONKERS. Yes, I write with the aid of supernatural power. No, just to reiterate, I'm NOT BONKERS!
Brendan Conboy The idea for my latest novel, The Invasion of the Mimics, came from watching the snow falling heavily in 2018. It was so spectacular that I quickly filmed it. Then as I watched it back, my imagination came alive with the concept that this was no ordinary snow. That each snowflake had been chemically altered to carry an alien consciousness within. Just one innocent-looking flake landing on bare skin could lead to a person being transformed. As a teen / young adult writer, I also instantly knew that young people would be immune to the whole process and that they would ultimately become the heroes, saving mankind from THE MIMICS.
