I am glad that tiktokker found him. Adorable eldery man needs an attention for his books.

[@The88trainwreck]

You can hear the narrator get choked up as she tries not to cry 🥹

[@TheCrystalBoat]

There is something so sweet about him just sitting at that table with his books. It sounds like a good plot too.

LOVE THIS STORY!! THANK YOU!

[@pita3908]

Thank you for your service to your country.

[@juliechildress8905]

I hope this author becomes a household name. Maybe local libraries and book stores will stock up on copies of his novel. I saw his story on tonight's episode of World News Tonight on ABC. Parents, please encourage your children to read books and use their imaginations. Maybe this man will become as popular as J.K. Rowling.

[@tomb407]

Such a nice story

[@Sherinthia7]

Congratulations Sir! Amazing!

[@salvadorgodinez3474]

God bless him

[@msullivan85]

Watch it get adapted into a movie. This story really has nowhere to go but up. If he falls into obscurity again he still has the success story of a lifetime and probably more money than he ever hoped for.

[@The_Stoic_PhilosopherAU]

Wonderful

[@achanwahn]

So, has anyone read the book yet?

[@Typhon888]

A teenage girl who teams up with a ghost….. Jesus Christ!

[@alynn.art.studio]

It’s the cover! He needs a new graphic artist!

[@kenlongmore]

But what about the story????

[@bobbyhall7472]

Genesis 1:29 Texans it's 2023, not 1953 in the Jim Crow South.

[@achanwahn]

Hey, if you'd like to sound like a snobby, well educated individual, maybe you should actually work on connecting topics and making sure to clarify your meaning. Because I am very interested how Gen 1:29 connects to JCLs in any way. Other than for you to attempt to disparage the third largest religion in the world. Which is a small-minded and petty thing to do, much like the many who sought to demean and displace millions based on faulty scientific (not religious) theory through enslavement. So put that bigoted finger away, & stop pointing in the mirror.

[@kellogg2185]

What are you whining about?

[@gshell2520]

A grown old man writing as a teenage girl🤡🌎

[@uprizin4eva700]

I grown man coming on KZbin to mock others 🤡🌏🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@Dallasneedsmoreblegh]

You’re not much of an avid reader, are you? If you were then you’d know this isn’t exactly uncommon.

[@PTunnelly]

That’s like 99% of writers tf you’re talking about?

[@karenryan78]

And ??? What's your point ???
