Here’s one of Mark’s newest novels, Facing the Beast Within. It deals with anxiety in kids, and as you can see below, it’s winning numerous awards.
Facing the Beast Within
DEMONS, GREMLINS, & GARGOYLES, OH MY!
Cameron Poole has a problem, a big problem; he’s a bully magnet who struggles with anxiety. That’s bad enough, but when Cameron learns that mythical monsters are trying to invade his summer camp, things go from bad to worse.
Malphas, a demon from a parallel world, is bringing his monster army to Camp Pontchartrain to start his invasion. Cameron and his unusual collection of friends are chosen to stop Malphas before it’s too late.
Can Cameron control his anxiety and confront his Beast while battling a huge army of monsters, or will his anxiety cause him to fail . . . again?
Buckle up and get ready for a thrilling adventure!
Facing the Beast Within was written to shine a light on anxiety in kids. Based on the anxious symptoms from the author’s son, Facing the Beast Within puts the reader into the churning depths of anxiety.
While writing the book, the author worked with a group of psychologists and mental health professionals, to learn the types of coping strategies they teach to their patients. These strategies, coupled with those used by the author with his son, are seamlessly woven into the story.
Hopefully, those struggling with anxiety will find a kindred spirit in Cameron, and maybe they won’t feel so alone. Parents might gain some insight into what their anxious kids are experiencing, and maybe, others will be more empathetic toward those suffering from this affliction.
