Ricochet Reviews: Interview with Peter Thomas Senese

I recently did an interview with Ricochet Reviews on my life as a writer and my various books. It was a pretty cool interview. I discussed my published works including CHASING THE CYCLONE, THE DEN OF THE ASSASSIN, CLONING CHRIST, WAR ON WALL STREET, IN THEIR WON WORDS, and THE WORLD TURNED UPSIDE DOWN, along with my upcoming books which include PREDATORS GAMES, QUEST, and THE PRODUCTION. And in between all of this, I shared some of my work advocating for children and literacy. You may want to check it out.

THE I CARE FOUNDATION

The I CARE Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Peter Thomas Senese that is dedicated to preventing international child abduction and trafficking. The foundation has been very effective in working to have new state and federal laws and policies implemented, or existing policies modified, geared toward protecting children of abduction. Since commencement of the I CARE Foundation's operations, the reported number of international parental child abductions originating from the United States has declined by over 15% per year during fiscal years 2011 and 2012, after nearly 30 years of abduction growth. Though focused on research and new policy implementation, the I CARE Foundation has played key roles in reuniting dozens of internationally abducted children while preventing many more cross-border abductions.

A Message From Peter Thomas Senese

Thank you for stopping by! As many of you know, I love being a historical fiction writer. My storytelling evolves around topics I find interesting and current to the social dialogue, including subjects such as religion, science, technology, capitalism, and parenting. In each of my novels, several of these issues are typically weaved into the story's plot, with the hope and intent to keep my readers entertained while also providing some interesting historical facts intended to accelerate each story's plot. Like any author, it is my hope to entertain my readers while at times also stirring emotions to create a social reaction the way my novel Chasing The Cyclone has played a key role in raising social awareness of international parental child abduction, including becoming the seed that led to the creation of the I CARE Foundation. Now you may ask yourself, 'How impactful has Chasing The Cyclone been?'

Significant.

For example prior to the activism created from Chasing The Cyclone, international child abduction in the United States was advancing at a pandemic rate for nearly 30 consecutive years in a row. Then Chasing The Cyclone was released and along with it came a diverse, wide-spread, and highly impactful tools and measures that have remarkably played a heavy role in reducing the rate of international parental child kidnappings in the United States by over 15% per year during fiscal years 2011 and 2012. God willing, the efforts of the I CARE Foundation and other hard-working organizations will lead to another decline in the IPCA rate originating from the United States while also leading to a much-needed reduction of IPCA in other countries. As far as my writing there is one thing more than anything else that you may be interested in knowing as it is at the core of my storytelling: if you listen carefully, you will hear the voice of a father who loves his son more than words can ever express. Thank you for your support and interest in my writing and activism. I hope you find my writing entertaining, educational, and that each of my novels stirs your emotions.

I invite you to read a special message about my writing and volunteer work assisting children in crisis. (A Special
Message From Peter)

Remeber - life is filled with magic. Embrace each day to the fullest!

U.S. International Child Abduction Rate Drops By 15%

Since the I CARE Foundation's inception, outbound reported cases of international parental child abduction originating from the United States has dropped by over 15%. This is a remarkable accomplishment, particularly when considering U.S. abductions skyrocketed during the previous 30 years. The drop in reported cases of international kidnappings is clearly related to government and non-government organizations efforts to raise society's awareness of abduction, while also creating new laws and policies geared to protecting children: issues the I CARE Foundation has worked hard at accomplishing.

In an effort to help families in crisis due to an international parental child abduction plan or actual kidnapping, I have created a detailed educational documentary film series titled Chasing Parents: Racing Into The Storms Of International Parental Child Abduction. Many targeted parents and advocates from around the world have found this series to be extremely useful. Click here to see the entire film series. Below is Chasing Parents: An Overview of International Parental Child Abduction (Part I).
