I had the pleasure of talking with Lenny Gallo about his life, his experiences, and his new book. This is a powerhouse memoir that grabs you from the first page and never lets go. It's harrowing, in a very positive way, and I recommend it to anyone interested in surviving medical crises. From his difficult childhood to his horrendous experiences with medication-induced movement disorder, Lenny tells it exactly like it is. I think this will be a must-read resource for people who have had these experiences, and many who struggle with them. It also serves as a call to survival and perseverance in the face of enormous challenges.

Enjoy a conversation with author Bruce W. Bishop. I've long admired his historical fiction, with meticulously research details interwoven with can't-put-down stories. It's been an added delight to get to know him as a friend, despite the distance between Halifax and New Jersey! Today we talk about his trilogy, his new book, his writing, and his plans.
