A few months back, I had the pleasure of hosting Chris Lincoln on my show to discuss his novel The Funny Moon, and I was lucky enough to get my hands on an advance reader copy from Rootstock Publishing—one of my favorite publishers, known for bringing authentic and compelling voices to readers. Lincoln’s talent shines in this story, which blends humor and emotional depth into a journey of self-discovery and marital reflection.

 Piece by piece, over a few days, I embarked on the excellent task of assembling this grand masterpiece. With close to 3500 intricate elements to arrange, the process was nothing short of mesmerizing. As I meticulously joined each brick, a sense of calm and tranquility washed over me. It was a joy-filled journey as I witnessed the tower steadily rise before my eyes.

Also the book boasts four different illustrators and they do a great job in capturing the fantastical science fiction and magical world that Siegel created. The colors and the character designs, along with the landscapes helped with the story immersion.
