Interview:

When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?

I never thought of myself as a writer. I spent more than forty years as an entrepreneur, CEO, and business consultant. The idea for writing came from my grandchildren. After more than twenty years of one-on-one Grandpa Days with six grandchildren, I realized the stories, lessons, and experiences we shared might help other grandfathers build stronger relationships with their own grandchildren.

Where do you get your information or ideas for your book?

Grandpa Day grew out of experiences with my grandchildren. The book is built around actual adventures, conversations, successes, challenges, and lessons learned over more than two decades. My grandchildren were my greatest teachers.

What does your family think of your writing?

My family has been incredibly supportive. My grandchildren especially enjoy seeing themselves and their adventures reflected in the stories. They know the book is a love letter to them and the special relationships we have built together.

What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your book?

I was surprised by how many important lessons came from small moments. A conversation over pancakes, a visit to a museum, or a simple walk often had a lasting impact. Strong relationships are built through small moments repeated over time.

Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say?

Yes. The comments that mean the most come from grandfathers who tell me they started their own version of Grandpa Day after reading the book. Others tell me the book inspired them to spend more one-on-one time with their grandchildren or helped them feel more comfortable and confident in their role as a grandfather.

What do you think makes a good story?

A good story is authentic. Readers connect with real people, real experiences, and real lessons. The best stories help us see ourselves, our families, and our relationships in a new light.

What would you like my readers to know?

I would like readers to know that strong family relationships are built through time, attention, and presence. You do not need expensive trips, elaborate plans, or special expertise. A meal together, a walk, a conversation, or a shared activity can become a memory that lasts a lifetime.

That is the heart of Grandpa Day.

The book is about nurturing grit, smarts, and love in the next generation, one small moment at a time.
