Hi Michael, I am a co-host on Suncoast View, a daily show on ABC 7 here in Sarasota, Fl. I do a twice weekly Facebook Live Book Club and we have several hundred people who watch. Tomorrow we start your book, "The Weight of the Moment". I will be mentioning it on our show every day this week. I think it is the best books I have read in a long time. Any message for our viewers tomorrow? Linda Carson

Hi Linda,
You certainly made my day with your message. Thank you for your kind words about my novel, as well as the daily exposure it is about to receive on your show. Since its release a year ago, The Weight of a Moment has been well-received and won several awards, but it is only now starting to find its audience. For new authors, it's a very crowded marketplace. As for a message for your viewers, I can only say that I hope the novel has the same effect on them as many of the readers I've heard from who've told me that they didn't just enjoy the book, but it also made them think about their lives, and life in general. I can't think of better feedback. Be well, Michael Bowe

First, let me say that I loved The Weight of a Moment, and wouldn’t change a single word. It really made me think. But, I noticed in some of the negative reviews the notion that there is too much going on, too many subplots and minor characters. As the author, I am curious about your perspective?

Michael Bowe:
Since I finished The Weight of a Moment, I have thought about it a lot, probably more than any book I’ve read. While the two protagonists, Tom and Nick, carry the story, I found myself thinking about Alex. He is a minor character but Tom and Nick both have deep conversations with him. Is there more to Alex than I realize?
