A Glimpse into The Worlds of Cameron Valdez, Robert P. French & A Book Review for Thunder

I've been immersed in a world Anthony Bellaleigh created in his book, Thunder, which I have had for a few years but have just gotten around to reading during the past week. Such is the price when I've had a hectic work schedule and family obligations, followed by an unexpected work-related injury which rocked my world.

 

I admit to photography having taken most of my attention since the summer of 2021. I have done some reading but haven't written reviews for the few titles I did read. Creating book reviews using my phone is not my preference and, with limited use of my left arm, doing the reviews wasn't as much of a priority as getting lost in a story once in a while. I will have to revisit those titles at a later date, though.

 

This past week, I have published three updates to Norma's World: a review for Anthony Bellaleigh's Thunder, followed by an author interview with Robert P. French and, last but not least, a blog post featuring Cameron Valdez and his woodwork creations.

 

It enhances my world when I can learn about/from others and have an opportunity to enjoy their creations. In Thunder, I read about a character who had lost everything in the span of a few seconds; it even robbed them of their desire to live. How the character grappled with the situation, and the events which ensued, is beyond anything I could imagine. Please note: there is violence within its pages but, if you would like to read the review for Thunder, click here.

 

From there, I became involved in the world of Robert P. French, the man, for a little while. After all, he did publish a series featuring one of my favourite characters, Cal Rogan. How I wish I could meet Cal in reality; it's a shame he is only a fictional character.

Last, but not least, take a look at the woodwork creations taking place at C & C Woodworks, owned and operated by Cameron Valdez who creates custom-made wooden signs/name plates, even logos, with his son, Connor Valdez. Who knows what creations may come out of the woodwork yet? You can visit the blog for Cameron's C & C Woodworks here.

 

It has been a genuine pleasure putting these things together. I look forward to what the next few weeks bring to Norma's World.
