Good morning friends and dear readers.
Up now is an interview I had with LitPick.com for their series Six Minutes With An Author. The interview - which goes over what's influenced me and my writing over the years, as well as answers to questions like what advice I have to other writers, where is my favorite place to write, as well as my favorite book and how it gave me affirmation that SEEING had a place in world - can be found on their Facebook (and while you're on their FB page, why not give'em a "Like"), or you can read the interview on their website.
Planning out a few blog posts to run in the near future - ones where I discuss trunk novels, the ways social media is helpful and also a hindrance, and also one discussing my next novel coming out late next year.
Stay tuned.

On the fence about if you want to enter the giveaway? Well, check out what some readers have had to say about SEEING:
Plot: Thirteen-year-old Jake Sheppard learns to cope with the harsh truth that comes with growing up - that those he loves don't stick around forever.
"Such a great read." (John Malik - author of DOUGHNUTS FOR AMY)
"This book may be fiction geared for young adults, but it is a must read for any age if you have ever suffered the intense hurt and bewilderment of being abandoned by a parent. Forget all the self help books and stop asking yourself 'why'. Immerse yourself in Seeing and you will finally realize that 'You've got to learn to let go.' Falank has nailed it....Seeing delivered on it's promise...it has changed the way I see the world, forever." (Yvonne - 5-star Goodreads Review)
"Beautifully written. Not only does it touch upon topics that pertain to adults and parents but it reaches out to such emotions that young adults experience. I will be sharing this book with my daughter. This is a true calling!" (Nicole W. - 5-star Amazon Review)
"Reading Falank's Seeing brings you right back to that very early teen place when the best adults in your life look at you with frustration and pity and you can't stand them as much as you still adore them. Read this book. It's poignant and real. [Seeing is] a lovely read and satisfying, paced just like it should be, slow enough to savor and enticing enough to keep pages turning." (Mary Sze-Tu - 5-star Goodreads Review)
"Lovely story that made me both want to savor it and race to the end. Interesting characters and beautiful imagery." (Sallie Anne Porter - 5-star Amazon Review)
"I found the themes dealing with loss and how it affects the person and their relationships very relatable. The story is told via a 13yo boy but any age can relate to it." (Adara Alston - 5-star Goodreads Review)
