What are your five favorite books, and why?
Bible, History, christian books, family, real life stories.
This life is so short and at my age of 68 I focus on the eternal life.
A word for young people: You can die at 20, 30, or any time. We have to
be ready to meet our Maker now.

Christian books.
What is your e-reading device of choice?
My laptop

Facebook, word of mouth, speaking engagements.
Describe your desk
simple and organized. I can't work on messy desk
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up in Communist Romania like a bird in a cage, looking to the sky and waiting for a time to fly.
I loved to read and write.
When did you first start writing?
In 1972 at the age of 22 in the Army. I competed with 5,000 students on short novels and won the first place.
What's the story behind your latest book?
My last book is called "HEAL THE SICK, CAST OUT DEMONS". I was on a night flight from Vancouver, Canada to Munich Germany. The Lord gave me that book word by word on that 10 hours flight and the next day a Church published it in Romanian.
How has Smashwords contributed to your success?
Smashwords was simply a gift from heaven for me. Instant publishing for free. Thank you Smashwords. God bless you.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
Knowing that my readers are lifted up, and receive hope, peace and joy by reading my books.
No amount of money can give me more joy than that, therefore I offered all my books for free. for everyone.
What are you working on next?
I wrote and published 4 books in the last 4 years. For me writing a book is like delivering a baby. The mother gets pregnant, and when the gestation is over, the baby comes. When my next pregnancy comes? I do not know.
For now, I focus on my ministry: lifting up souls.
Who are your favorite authors?
Jesus, the apostols and Zac Poonen.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
Knowing that God's mercies are renewed every morning and He has nice surprises every day for me.
It is so exciting to walk with the Lord daily.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
Reading the Bible, listening to anointed sermons, cooking, swimming, spending time with my family, traveling, witnessing for the Lord, lifting up souls. I am never bored or depressed.
