About Me and My Books
Variety is the spice of life. Maybe, that is why I’ve written over twenty, unique books to date. While storytelling, when I’m being one-hundred percent honest, I write my nonfiction sagas as Cynthia Meyers-Hanson. If I’m telling a children’s tale, I create those books with that same name because it is obvious that my anecdotes are meant to entertain youngsters. When I come up with novel ideas, my pen name- Sydney S. Song- is my alter ego; that part of me writes books full of half-truths. All my stories contain some insights and validity based on the realities of contemporary society. In short, I love to inspire people to better lives whether I am retelling an account factually or not.
Honestly, I prefer to write nonfiction sagas about the ‘inspiration of’ and ‘miracles in’ life but I won’t fabricate testimonies just to write another book. Plus, sometimes, my goal is to touch on a societal ill in order to provoke compassionate thought; that is why I began penning my novels. While creating fiction, I usually wish to remain neutral and non-confrontational; therefore, I attempt to show that there are many sides to every saga. My hope is that the audience finds the middle or common ground through empathy. Other times, my fictions are my vehicles to let off steam while entertaining others- or even making people laugh at life.
Meanwhile, my favorite question during book interviews is the following question: How did you get started? The short answer is that my mother died. Some people dream of being authors; my writing began as what could be described as a nightmare! HOWEVER- as she died, mom’s experiences ran the gamut from going through all the grieving steps a terminal soul follows to having what would be called a Christian Near Death Experience (NDE). When most of her messages from God panned out, people in my area buzzed with the story of my parent’s death. My witness became my first book entitled Mom’s on the Roof and I can’t Get Her Down.
When I first started writing in 1991, my life was in turmoil; that’s an understatement. However, I do NOT write for MY therapy; I write to give clarity to other souls trapped in unhappiness; my stories should be the light at the end of the darkness of the tunnel. When I do scribble thoughts, that inspiration guides every nuance and detail of the tales being woven. Especially during my nonfiction writing, I feel possessed and compelled by the Holy Spirit. That is just one reason I declare, “I work for God. That is to say, I scribe His Story.”
