Review of my book in Reader's Favorite. It got a 5.
Reviewed By Jon Michael Miller for Readers’ Favorite
Macular Degeneration and Other Stories by Robin Vigfusson is an engrossing collection of 24 stories, any of which can easily be read in one sitting. They are delightful and thought-provoking in their reality and unabashed directness. Although the title suggests the aging process, the subjects, settings, and ideas are widely varied, but each one d Read more of this blog post »

"It's a selection of short stories, but they are all written in the same voice. They repeat themselves endlessly and can't seem to separate their thoughts. It all runs on and runs together and sometimes it's hard to tell it's supposed to be a differen"

"Bravery at its finest
John Fetterman is a brave hero personally and professionally. I am a proud Pennsylvanian having him in the Senste! Thank you John! " |

"A bracing, unexpectedly tender memoir that’s as much about telling the truth as it is about politics. Fetterman writes plainly about mental health, public pressure, and what second chances should look like—never preachy, often funny, and surprisingly"

| I'm very disappointed. Her writing style is dense and meandering which can work very well in fiction, but is exasperating when it comes to history or philosophy. When a book is chock full of footnotes (as hers is), that's usually a dead giveaway that ...more | |

“Our death is our wedding with eternity
What is the secret? "God is One."
The sunlight splits when entering the windows of the house.
This multiplicity exists in the cluster of grapes;
It is not in the juice made from the grapes.
For he who is living in the Light of God,
The death of the carnal soul is a blessing.
Regarding him, say neither bad nor good,
For he is gone beyond the good and the bad.
Fix your eyes on God and do not talk about what is invisible,
So that he may place another look in your eyes.
It is in the vision of the physical eyes
That no invisible or secret thing exists.
But when the eye is turned toward the Light of God
What thing could remain hidden under such a Light?
Although all lights emanate from the Divine Light
Don't call all these lights "the Light of God";
It is the eternal light which is the Light of God,
The ephemeral light is an attribute of the body and the flesh.
...Oh God who gives the grace of vision!
The bird of vision is flying towards You with the wings of desire.”
