About the Book

In 2005, America played witness to one of the most colossal natural disasters in its recorded history. In addition to cataclysmic, infrastructural damage inflicted by the infamous "Hurricane Katrina", the psychological impact that ensued proved substantial in its own right. Our country's fuming frustration of unresolved social issues would come to a head, due to the poor federal response to the Gulf Coast after Katrina. Steven, a Dallas, TX native, and his mother moved to the Gulf Coast in 2001. After his father lost his battle to alcoholism, his mother decided to start a new path in life back in her hometown of Pass Christian, MS. Though dragged to the small town life quite unwillingly, that ungrateful and whiny teen would soon be faced with to his own new path-a path necessary to reach adulthood and to, overall, find his niche in the world. But little did they both know, they'd be a part of American History in the most intimate of ways. Using Katrina as a "B.C. to A.D" defining event, "Product of the Storm" uses chronologically ordered diary entries, poems, and essays to narrate a young man's struggle to find his identity in a stormy world. But, it also serves as a reference point of the views of the country-the views on the issues of addiction, miseducation, war, global warming, political corruption, street violence, religion, racism, and poverty, pre and post Hurricane Katrina. Be witness to what the storm made them.
About the Author: Hello, and welcome to my Amazon book page. My name is Steven Buster. I go by The Stormy Poet in the writing world. And, in case you are wondering, my pen name is attributed to my ongoing fascination with weather phenomena-one I have had since childhood-and how I relate the wide variety of subject matter I write about and my artistic creative process to it. As an author, I strive to utilize the language arts in a manner that most effectively portrays the many lessons of life, in order to most profoundly impact the hearts and minds of mankind. Through my talent, I seek not to belittle or pressure people into changing their ways of thinking but, instead, broaden and expand their minds, so that people may make better life choices on their own. The Stormy Poet is the author of the published anthology, "Product of the Storm," and he leads a local writing organization, Wordsmiths & Readers of Tarrant. He is also the author at "TheStormyPoet.com"-a website that host his free literary works, artistic inspirations, social commentary, lifestyle guidance and resources aimed at community improvement.
