Jose Fernandez Quotes

…I relied on an unpublished report by Jose Fernandez-Partagas, a late-twentieth-century meteorologist who recreated for the National Hurricane Center the tracks of many historical hurricanes, among them the Galveston Hurricane. He was a meticulous researcher given to long hours in the library of the University of Miami, where he died on August 25, 1997, in his favorite couch. He had no money, no family, no friends--only hurricanes. The hurricane center claimed his body, had him cremated, and on August 31, 1998, launched his ashes through the drop-port of a P-3 Orion hurricane hunter into the heart of Hurricane Danielle. His remains entered the atmosphere at 28 N., 74.2 W., about three hundred miles due east of Daytona Beach.

Within the pages of my books, I weave tales that enchant and enlighten. Bridge the hearts from every path and across the diverse genres, hold a steadfast belief that in the realm of literature, transformation blooms, and stories aspire not just with hours of enjoyment but with moments of profound wisdom and introspection.
