Huge congratulations to Nathan Zen-Sapien on winning the International Impact Book Awards for The P.A.C.T. 🏆

We’re absolutely thrilled to see The P.A.C.T. receive this level of recognition — especially as it marks the first major book award for Nathan. A fantastic achievement and well deserved.

The awards ceremony takes place in Phoenix, AZ on February 27th, 2026. The win speaks volumes about the impact of this work and the response it’s had from readers and judges alike.

Congratulations again, Nathan — we’re proud to have been part of your publishing journey and excited to see what comes next (TV series, anyone? 👀📺).

👉 The P.A.C.T. is available on Amazon now.

RAYMOND J. THANK YOU!!!

 Raymond J. (but everyone calls him Ray) just made my day and better yet he made the first donation to my GoFundMe!!! 

Here’s the link https://gofund.me/65034fb72

As a “thank you” I am sending him a rare signed first copy of one of my books!!! It’s rare because the first version of the book had to be corrected and the copy has the original mistake!!!

I appreciate your support, RAY!!!

Cheers

I Definitely Want To Go To The INTERNATIONAL IMPACT BOOK AWARDS

I changed my mind from the earlier post and now because of the potential career changing publicity I feel I need to go! So, I started a GoFundMe that covers most of the costs. Please help out if you can and I will be happy to give you a signed book and other materials associated with The PACT and the event!!! Here’s the link  https://gofund.me/65034fb72

FYI My autograph adds about $10 to everything I sign so the merchandise/books could be rather valuable someday!!! 

BLESSINGS TO YOU FOR ALL AND ANY OF YOUR SUPPORT!!!

The P.A.C.T. Won The INTERNATIONAL IMPACT BOOK AWARDS!!!

SO HAPPY that The P.A.C.T. (a book that is on Amazon under my stage name Nathan Zen-Sapien) won The International Impact Book Awards which takes place in Phoenix, AZ on February 27th, 2026!!!! I probably won't be able to attend because tickets to the event range from $3500 to $800 not including flight and hotel accommodations. I have won festivals and contests before BUT this is the first time any of my books have received recognition and I am THRILLED!!! Maybe there's hope that The P.A.C.T. will be made into a TV series someday!!!

If any of the judges (or individuals) who read the book are reading this I just want to sincerely THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND SUPPORT!!!

p.s. Here's the link to the book, the official trailer to the short plus the certificate and laurels. Peace!!
