Guest Don Cook:
Discusses his unique spin on Biblical Fiction.
Don Edward Cook decided to become a writer late in life. As a Canadian who identifies with classic American ideals, and his faith in God and love for science fiction, Cook was inspired to write a Judeo-Christian, science fiction thriller, Ithyanna, Last Daughter of Atlantis: Book 1 – how the world Ended Millennia Ago.
This novel is based upon his short film, The Last Atlantean (2009), which garnered a place in the top ten percentile of IMDb’s MovieMeter (during the summer of 2010.)
He was a member of the Canadian Authors Association and the London Area Writers. He was affiliated with Raindance Toronto, a filmmaking institute for independent filmmakers. His strongest creative influences are The Twilight Zone’s Rod Serling, Star Trek’s Gene Roddenberry, and legendary author C.S. Lewis. Cook, 59, published his first book several years ago, The Invader Candidate.
When Cook, who has Asperger’s Syndrome, is not penning save-the-world novels, he enjoys several hobbies. He is an avid model builder, whose specialty subjects include MiGs (a Soviet/Russian line of fighter aircraft), Mirages (a French line of mostly delta-winged military jets), and Mach-busters (a term that is a self-explanatory). He is also a huge fan of classic rock, especially The Moody Blues, as well as surf pioneers, The Beach Boys, and country music icon Johnny Cash.
Born in Stratford, Ontario and raised in Bornholm, Ontario, he attended Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. He earned a General Arts and Sciences Degree, a diploma on broadcasting Television, and a post-graduate diploma in the Advanced filmmaking program. Mr. Cook currently resides in London, Ontario, Canada.
