My guest today is Brian Frederick!
Brian a children's book author who aims to bring more joy into the world, for children (and for the adults who love them) so that they can live happier lives filled with more kindness.
Brian is a proponent of finding the goodness in life. He shares the value of that philosophy through children’s stories. In his books he hopes to entertain children and show them a world of kindness, joy and wonder.
Monday through Friday finds Brian as the lawyer at the helm of a commercial mediation services company. His work encourages solving disputes peacefully. This ideal carries over to the philosophy he shares in his children’s books.
Asked about his philosophy of life as a writer, Brian said:
“I don’t know if stories for children can change the world, but I hope they can make it a little better – certainly for my readers.
I hope I can bring a little more joy into the world, and a little more truth and kindness.
I do care that these and other important things are often in short supply when they needn’t be. Maybe my readers and I can change that together…”
In a previous life, Brian made back page headlines in his home country as a record breaking swimmer. He was once dubbed ""the hottest property in Irish Swimming"" and some of his records stood for more than 30 years. He took several international caps representing Ireland abroad, before ""extra-curricular"" activities became more alluring in his late teens.
You Only Dine Twice... Brian has enjoyed both breakfast and dinner (twice) with both James Bond and Vanessa Redgrave...
The last thing Brian did before lockdown was to have a pizza with an Oscar winner and his wife..."
