My novel, HUNTING THE DEVIL, is a finalist in the Eric Hoffer cover award. I designed the cover myself.  Each year, the Eric Hoffer Award presents the da Vinci Eye to books with superior cover artwork. Cover art is judged on both content and style. The da Vinci Eye is given in honor of the historic artist, scientist, and inventor Leonardo da Vinci. This is an additional distinction beneath the Eric Hoffer Award umbrella. "All our knowledge has its origins in our perceptions." "Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art." -Leonardo da Vinci

I have had exactly all 10 of these things happen to me, and... I was extremely uncomfortable each and every time. My favorite was a lady who stood on an automatic door opener so I could go through the door. There was no room to go through the door because she was standing on the automatic mat. She then explained (very slowly) to me that she was holding the door open for me, as if I was mentally off as well. Still I smiled because she was trying to help but really...?!!

The Eric Hoffer Award Honorable Mention Memoir Category, First Horizon Award Finalist, and Short List for the Grand Prize 2021! Wonderful news on this day last year. #flashbackfriday The Grand Gypsy, Ottavio Canestrelli with Ottavio Gesmundo, Lulu Press - “The grandson of circus great Ottavio Canestrelli has revived his grandfather's handwritten memoir and added more family stories of six generations of this famous circus family. Stories of daring and destiny are interwoven with rich detail and a wealth of never-before-seen circus photos, as the family act evolved from a makeshift caravan in 1896 in Italy by performing in the town squares throughout Europe and the world. The grandfather's fascinating behind-the-scenes tales of circus tents on fire, a tragic python attack, animal training, and daring trace the survival of the circus during two world wars and the family's coming to America with the Greatest Show on Earth, Ringling. A remarkable contribution to circus history as much as memoir with star-studded daring acts, juggling, balancing, falls, and injuries. For the Canestrelli family, the show must go on, and it continues in this fascinating read.” https://www.theusreview.com/USRhoffer.html#memoir #HofferAward #HonorableMention #FirstHorizonAwardFinalist #TheEricHofferAward #TheGrandGypsy #Memoir #Travelogue #Circus #History #Travel #Adventure #Circo #Cirque #Zirkus (at New York City, N.Y.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdgKejPM91Q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
