Author Philip A Kledzik's Writings

Disclaimer Is Needed

2010-01-31T15:32:00.000-06:00

A number of leaders in my local church who have authority over me have brought to my attention that my novels contain graphic material that in their opinion may cause some to sin. They suggested that some of the material in their opinion was dishonoring to Christ. I disagreed but have an obligation before my Lord to obey the elders He has placed over me. It was never my intention to cause either a brother, sister or anyone else to sin by reading my novels. My intention was always to honor God and it will continue to be so. However, I will discontinue personnally promoting these first two novels by way of personal appearances, etc. as an act of submission to my elders.
In Him,
Philip A. Kledzik

Time Spent Lately

2009-11-04T09:21:00.002-06:00

Lately I haven't been able to spend as much time as I wanted writing my Supernatural Thriller. With the weather getting colder and with all this unseasonable rain, we've been trying to get the kids out to more places before it gets too cold and we will want to just snuggle inside where it is warm, hopefully around the fireplace.
I've also been spending time doing research for future possibilities. I've been finding new resources to help making my writing even better for you to enjoy.
Come and provide any thoughts, requests or comments about what you would like to see written and I'll let you know if and when your ideas are used. By your sending your thoughts, requests and comments through you are authorizing me to use them in the event I choose to without the need to reimburse you in any way for the use of such thoughts, requests or comments (i.e. no royalties paid to you from books sold using them, your name will not be added as a co-author, etc.)

Southtown Star says Author Phil Kledzik has the Write Stuff!

2009-10-26T12:14:00.002-05:00

Oriano Pagnucci and Matthew Grotto of the Southtown Star say Philip Kledzik of New Lenox has "The Write Stuff". This is just the latest of Phil's media coverage that began with his first novel "An Issue of the Heart" back in April of 2009. The media continues to cover Phil and the releases of his novels "Painted Rooms" and "An Issue of the Heart".
They aren't the only one that are looking forward to the next few releases by Phil either. Phil already has his next novel (yet to be titled) which is a supernatural thriller in the works and he continues to pound away at it. You can find an excerpt of the Thriller at his website, www.authorphilipkledzik.books.officelive.com .
Phil's growing audience is also waiting in anticipation for the second book of his first trilogy series. He recently released the first of the set, "Painted Rooms" in August of 2009. He's had requested from different people in his reader audience to write more about Peter and Rachelle, so he is answering your plea and will create a trilogy. The rest of this trilogy is next on the docket once the Thriller is ready for publication.
Let us know what you are most interested in finding out about Peter and Rachelle, and Phil will try to answer every request personally.

My novels available in South Africa!

2009-09-30T08:24:00.000-05:00

My wife was informed today that there is a store located right near where she spent 3 months in South Africa back in 2000. She stayed in Muizenburg, Fish Hoek, Sun Valley to name a few places. The store's website is http://loot.co.za . If you are in South Africa and would like to purchase my novels, this could be a very good choice for you. I won't be able to personalize the copies, but you can order them for much less. Also, I believe I saw Painted Rooms had free shipping through them.
Definitely check them out, and please let me know what you think about the books.

If you would like a sneak peak go to the Novel Excerpts page on my website. Please let me know what you think both here for others to read and on my website through the Contact Us page.
I look forward to hearing from you about Thriller!
