My latest novel is out! Number 5 Babyn Yar Street: A World War II Novel—Ukraine.

Ektarina (Rina) Stepankova and Sofia Shevchenko, university students in 1941 Kyiv, have their whole lives ahead of them. The best friends look so much alike they could be twins—tall, blonde, sparkling blue eyes, alluring smiles.

But only Rina is Jewish.

Number 5 Babyn Yar Street is Rina’s story—a breathtaking, passionate, and suspenseful story of survival during the Nazi invasion of Kyiv in September, 1941. Where Sofia is slightly boy crazy, Rina is more reserved, shy, studious. That’s part of what her Russian history professor, Illia, finds attractive.

But you have to understand, that's just what I tell myself to avoid sitting down and getting on with the writing! Seriously, if I am blocked, it's not a lack of ideas, it's a lack of clarity. I've got myself in a corner I can't seem to write my way out of, or I took off on a tangent that seemed so FABULOUS at the time of doing it, but which completely screws up my story! LOL...but writer's bloc? Nahhhh.....;-)(less)
T.T. Thomas The money, the awards, the island vacations! OH...best thing about "writing"? Well, not the three things I just listed! LOL...I'll tell you what it is…moreThe money, the awards, the island vacations! OH...best thing about "writing"? Well, not the three things I just listed! LOL...I'll tell you what it is for me, and sometimes, it doesn't feel like much to go on, but it's this: I write because I would like to think I might make make one small difference in someone's life same as was made in mine by authors I read when I was younger, many of whom were long dead by the time I read them. Books gave me hope and purpose and a secret hideaway where only my response mattered. Powerful stuff when you're a young reader. And I still read, tons of books.(less)
