My Book Projects
Writing allows me to express my literary creativity. Through my book projects,
I delve into compelling narratives that spark curiosity and introspection.
Tom and Me
Tom and Me is a recounting of meeting Thomas Jefferson in the 21st Century. This book merges historical fiction with contemporary themes, inviting readers to consider a unique perspective.
Book Excerpt
"When I met Thomas Jefferson, it was as though I had stumbled across a victim of Alzheimer’s who had just woken up into a world that was obviously one with breathable air but that was about it. I was determined to tell the story at its immediate conclusion but have been in rather a state of shock for a few months. I have now gathered my notes and will lay out a tale that you will not immediately believe, but hopefully, as you read, will come to see its truth. Whether I believe it or not; that is another question. I have certainly considered the possibility of a cosmic delusion or simple madness on my part. There are photographs, but they are secure in a bank vault and in two back-up servers because I intend to cash in on them as soon as I have enough believers in my story."
Normal
Normal captures the musings and memories of Ammar Abu Bakr. This book reveals a tapestry of experiences that resonate with readers seeking depth and connection.
Book Excerpt
“Across his numbed mind, the incredible events that had led to the freeing of the genius and vision of the Arab people now rushed. He saw clearly the destroyed and recreated cities of astounding beauty, the fertile, vibrant lands replacing wasteland, and again he felt the awakening.
Yet as the events rushed by him, he sensed a warning. He felt deeply in his soul the folly of men before God, always thinking that they would get it right, only to be graphically shown by Him just how far off the mark they were.
But damn it, they had gotten it right! He, Shihab Asad and Jason Satterfield, they had done it together. Yes, they had gotten it right, and no spirit nor saint nor shapeless thing from Hades would take that away from him!”
