Author: Marvin D Wilson Author Bio: Marvin D. Wilson is the author of two published books, I Romanced theStone (Memoirs of a Recovering Hippie), and Owen Fiddler. He has been awarded the prestigious Avatar Award for excellence in spiritual books. Wilson has had articles published in several Ezines, online forums and writers' groups, and has been interviewed on hundreds of blogs, radio and TV shows. His popular blog for writers and readers is at Free Spirit.
Wilson is a family man, married for thirty two years, with three children and five grandchildren. He has been around the block of life several times, through the hills and valleys, and has survived in good enough spirits to desire to write about life, and about living life on purpose. He writes books that deliver spiritual and inspirational messages in an engaging, thought provoking, often times humorous, more than often irreverent, sometimes sexy and even ribald way, through the spinning of an entertaining tale.
“Highly spiritual, inspiring, enlightening and engaging … a case study in despair and addiction … a story that tugs at the heart. Using words as his brushes and the imagination as his canvas, Marvin Wilson paints an afterlife landscape that rings true.”
Philip Harris, author – “WakingGod” - “A Maine Christmas Carol” - “Jesus Taught it Too” (Early Roots of theLaw of Attraction)
“Anyone can appreciate the language and storytelling on the page, but Owen Fiddleris deeper for those who want to look- a colorful, unique, multi-layered cast of characters - you will walk away from this novel having at least been inspired to glimpse the possibility thatthere is more to life than a simple daily existence.”
Lisa Haselton - award-winning author/editor/book critic
"The story rings true - all of us share at least some of his demons.His story can change our story.”
Walter Sorg - WILS-Michigan Talk-Radio Host
“Owen Fiddler grabs your attention right away. He is the grasshopper in Aesop’s tale of the grasshopper and the ant.”
