Four Letters

Empat Surat.

Four Letters is coming. Yes, Empat Surat will be the next book that will be released after Gerobak 777. This as in a few of my other stories has a strong female lead. Lina is a very determined young woman who takes matters into her own hands after being embarrassed online by some racy pics her ex posted of her.

Probably the worst nightmare for any young woman in high school. However, Lina is a stubborn young woman who is going to set things straight. Not only with this ex but the last three boys she dated. One could say:

Revenge is never the answer. But at times it is the only solution.

However, there is a certain pleasure in Lina’s revenge, and upon finding out what she is up to, you too will be on her side.

Strong Female Leads.

Many of my books have a strong female lead. Partly I assume because growing up, my best friend and next-door neighbor was a girl. Also, possibly because I raised my two kids alone and my daughter was 13 when my ex left. This may give me some insight into the strong female lead. Or in another life, I was a woman? Hell, I don’t know but so be it. Strong female lead characters it is. I am proud of the fact that I can write as a girl. Sure, that sounds funny, but I am happy that I can. I hope I am correct in the way they feel and the attitude I portray within the character. Not for nothing but having your daughter tell you every bit of her dating life can be shocking. So yes, I do have some deep insight into a teenage girl’s psyche and emotional state during those years of her life.

How Does it Come Together?

I wish I could tell you. All I know is, that I write the books in three acts like a movie. Beginning, middle, and end. This process works for movies and I use it for the books. It’s a bit like filling in the blanks and going forward with the story full steam ahead.

For example, there is no build-up in this book or the others. We get right into the thick of things. Starting with Lina running through the hallway straight to the toilet to throw up. Yes, we hit the ground running and the action picks up from there. My idea is that we need to grab the audience by the scruff and make shit happen!

Lina is destroyed by what happened and while riding the emotional rollercoaster she comes up with a plan to get her revenge. Yes, you will have to wait for the rest of the story. The point is I waste little time throwing you into Lina’s world to see how she deals with the aftermath of it all.

Zsolt Zsemba

Zsolt Zsemba has worn many different hats. He has been an entrepreneur, and businessman for over 30 years. Living abroad has given him many amazing experiences in life and also sparked his imagination for writing. After moving to Canada from Hungary at the age of 10 and working in a family business for a large part of his life. The switch from manufacturing to writing came surprisingly easily for him. His passion for writing began at age 12, mostly writing poetry and short stories. In 1999, the chance came to write scripts. Zsolt took some time off from his family business to write in Jakarta Indonesia for MD Entertainment. Having written dozens of soap operas and made for TV movies, in 2003 Zsolt returned to the family business once more. In 2018, he had the chance to head back to Asia once again. He took on the challenge to be the COO for MD Pictures and get back into the entertainment business. The entertainment business opened up the desire to write once more and the words began to flow onto the pages again. He decided to rewrite a book he began years ago. Organ House was reborn and is a fiction suspense novel while Scars is a young adult drama focused on life’s challenges. After the first two books, his desire to write not only became more challenging but enjoyable as well. After having several books completed he was convinced to publish them for your enjoyment. Zsolt does not tend to stay in one specific genre but tends to lean towards strong female leads and horror. Though he also has a few human interest books, he tends to write about whatever brews in his brain for a while.
