Yes, I'm still away from the blog, but I happened to have today scheduled as a stop on Jefferey Beesler's book tour for his new release Optical Osmosis. Be sure to visit Jeff's blog which is linked below and do check out his book!
Thanks for
hosting me today, Arlee! I’m proud to come on over here and discuss my new
book, Optical Osmosis with you.
Throughout the
blog tour, I’ve discussed most of the components of the book, ranging from the
relationship dynamics between siblings to a kooky, snarky retired psychic who
comes close enough to stealing the show with her antics. But there is one key
element I haven’t discussed, and so today’s the day for it.
I’m a firm
believer that most people in this life have at least one person they can turn
to in times of need, even if that person might be, depending on the
individual’s belief system, God. Without delving too deep into a theological
discussion at this time, it can be understandable why people turn to places
like church, community centers, or things of this sort. They’re looking for
help. There’s a song out there that has a particular lyric which sums up what I
think of this. “We all need somebody to lean on.”
In Optical
Osmosis, the person my main character Greg Gnops comes to lean on the most is
his sister’s best friend, Dani Staras. Both of them are genuinely concerned for
his sister, Ashley, who only introduces them to one another because she seems
to think Greg could use a female companion. A genuine friendship between Greg
and Dani develops despite of all the setbacks going on in the story. At one
point, Greg has to make the choice to tell Dani about what has happened to his
eyes. Will she understand his dilemma? You’ll have to read the book to find
out!
