Joe Siccardi, Author

Best-selling writer and author, Joe Siccardi is a prolific storyteller of inspirational wisdom-filled books about life. His latest offering is a fictional memoir, "My Name Is Sam ... and Heaven Is Still Shining Through", an extension of his debut novella "Heaven Shining Through" (released March 2018). The novella claimed rave reviews by book reviewers and book bloggers alike and the novel has released as an audiobook on Amazon Audible August 2020.

The author released his second book in November 2018 tilted "Wisdom From a Father: One dad's thoughts about life." A beautiful collection of essays about love, life, marriage, and raising his children. With a dash of humor and fatherly life lessons. Both books are available on Amazon Books, Amazon Kindle, and many fine online bookstores. Volume 2 will release Oct. 2020.

He is a graduate of Dominican College of Blauvelt (NY) and holds a BA degree in Liberal Arts. Joe began his career with Paterson (NJ) News and continued for the next 52 years in a variety of positions as editorial writer, editor, and publisher. He now writes and publishes his works as a new Indie Author. He has an official website he called wisdomfromafather.com and shares all about life and fatherhood.

The storyteller says it well. Joe states, "I'm the ordinary Joe walking along this journey called life and sharing it with you." And he has the life experience to back this statement as a proud father of five children, 18 grandchildren, and three -- soon to be four -- great-granddaughters.

He has gathered all his life and work experiences from living in many places on East Coast and Midwest like Paterson, Totowa, Newton and Ogdensburg, NJ; Belvidere, IL; Toledo, OH; Washington, DC; Laurel, MD; Seneca Falls and Willard (Romulus), NY and currently Dover-Foxcroft, ME

When not writing Joe enjoys travel, cooking, and spending time with all his grown children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He also enjoys pleasure reading some of his favorite authors and writers like James Patterson, Tom Clancy, and his literary wish is a meeting with icon author Mr. Stephen King.
