Vinny O'Hare (vinnyohare) | 17774 comments Interview With Author Lloyd Mullins

Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I grew up on a tree farm in Indiana, and spent 20 years in the Air Force. Since retiring, I’ve moved with my wife, the lovely and talented Jess, back to my family farm, held a lot of (mostly terrible) jobs, gotten my BA and MFA in Creative Writing, and currently make ends meet working as a writing consultant at a local university. I’ve written two books: the first, Thumperica! A Novel of the Ghost of America Future, is a very dark dystopian satire (think Orwell & Atwood meet Monty Python & Quentin Tarantino).

Vinny O'Hare (vinnyohare) | 17774 comments Interview With Author James Agape

Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
My name is James B. Agape, and I’m a Kenyan poet and writer who explores themes of mental health, resilience, and self-discovery through poetry. As an introvert, I’ve always found a deep sense of comfort in words and quiet reflection, which has shaped how I approach my writing. My first book, Pent Up Thoughts, is a deeply personal collection that captures my own experiences battling depression and navigating the complexities of mental health. Through this work, I hope to connect with readers on a meaningful level, offering insight and solace to those who may share similar struggles.

Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’ve loved reading and stories for as long as I can remember. At the age of ten, I decided to write a book of my own. When finished, the story was an epic thirty pages, complete with a cover I drew myself. It led to countless other stories, mostly about horses and riding. Over time, romantic relationships became a theme in my work, and later, a little crime fiction began finding its way in there.

I love words, books, and story! I work out how I feel about things by writing in my journal or on my blog. My greatest joy is to use words to make much of Jesus and point others to Him.
