Interview with Russell A. Vassallo, Author of "The Horse with the Golden Mane"

Russell A. Vassallo is a retired attorney, and lives with his wife Virginia on a farm in central Kentucky. Russell works the land, rides horses and lives an active life. He has written two books about his animal friends, but he is by no means limited to animal stories. He often works on several stories at once, and is now working on Street Wise, a novel about his friendships with mobsters.

Juanita: Welcome back to Reader Views Russell, we are so happy to have the opportunity to talk with you once again. The last time you stopped by Reader Views, you had just released "Tears and Tales: Stories of Animal and Human Rescue," and here you are again with another book. It looks like you've been busy!

Born Boots Reviews

Russell: Hi Juanita, it's good to talk to you again. And yes, you're right. I've just released my new book "The Horse with the Golden Mane."

Juanita: Once again, your captivating readers with your wonderful animal stories in "The Horse with the Golden Mane: Stories of Adventure, Mystery and Romance." How many stories are in this new collection? How long have you been working on them?

Russell: There are three full novelettes in this collection plus an inspirational foreword called, When We're Down which is about a local parishioner in Casey County, Kentucky. All the stories are based on true events and I'd say I've been working on them most of my life.

Stories like Eric actually took root fifty years ago when I met a survivor of the Holocaust. The man fascinated me. He filled me with stories of pre-war Germany. And he had this dog that was terribly scarred. Eric is the story of how that occurred.

Taj, occurred to me shortly after we moved to Kentucky, sixteen years ago. The horse's name is Power Blaster, but that name never did anything for me. Once a horse has raced his name cannot be changed so I changed it by writing his story. Taj is still living here on the farm and in very good health and, I hope, enjoying every bit of his retirement. He even has a girl friend, Dusty Dart.

And finally, The Horse with the Golden Mane has been gelling ever since my wife had an auto accident in 1990. My main character just totally got away from me and created a magnificent story full of twists and turns. It takes the concept of magical thinking to a new level. I totally surprised even myself because it's just beyond anything I have ever done.

Juanita: What ties these three stories together?

Russell: The connecting tie in all three stories is bonding. Eric is the story of a lonely man and an abandoned dog, bonding with each other and facing a tremendous challenge. And it's a story of two humans bonding in a different way. The story takes the reader to life in a foreign country where such a bonding was not possible during the Second World War.

In Taj, a man and his daughter have been estranged as a result of divorce. It takes the search for a man and a horse -which are also bonded-- to forge a new and stronger bond between the main character and his daughter and grandson.

Now The Horse with the Golden Mane is the bond between a man and his wife, one that has been severed by separation and in a sense it's a case of denial because the main character, Pierce Bernard, just cannot accept the fact that his wife is no longer with him. It's the story of a man's struggle to regain his wife's love by training an unruly, untrusting horse. The reader will sit on the edge of his chair to find out if they ever find each other again.

Juanita: Russell, would talk to us once again about your love of animals? Has your life always been synonymous with animals?

Russell: As a child I was ill with bronchial pneumonia every year for the first eight years of my life. Most of that time was spent alone. Because of my illness I couldn't play outside so I was pretty much confined to bed or downstairs. Animals have just always played a major part in my life. I relate well to them.

When I was strong enough to go outside, it was only for an hour or two and my only playmate was by Pomeranian, Palsy. Later, when we visited my grandfather's farm, I palled around with two hunting dogs, Rusty and Queenie, an Irish setter and a German Short-haired Pointer.

Juanita: As the years pass, does your relationship or love for your interaction with animals change?

Russell: Yes, it does. As we age we acquire a greater understanding of life. With that, we appreciate the loyalty, the gratitude, the kindness of animals as valuable gifts. The relationship changes because we learn to communicate with them... in their language. And we learn to accept their love which becomes more precious every day because our needs grow every day. That's why the passing of an animal friend inflicts such deep emotional hurt. It reminds us of our own mortality and that is not something we comprehend when we are young.

Juanita: Russell, do you think different species of animals - dogs, cats, horses, etc. - offer their own unique gifts to their human owners?

Russell: Definitely, yes. Our dogs are tied to us emotionally but they are more servile, almost fawning sometimes. From them we gain affection. Our cats, on the other hand, have the same affection but they withhold it. When Boots comes over to be petted, it's a treat because he is independent and makes his own choices. Dogs almost have to obey. Cats do their own things. And horses, they are a different story entirely. Some are easier to bend. Others will keep you on your guard every day. Some form affection for you; others you have to earn their trust every day.

It's a known fact that animal owners tend to live longer. If they did a study I'll bet they'd find that animal owners tend to recover faster from illnesses as well.

I believe everyone has a place in their lives for animals. A horse owner will tell you that just being near a horse takes him mind off his worries. There is something therapeutic about a horse. If you ride the trail with him your focus is the horse and your surroundings. There is simply no place for worry on a trail. You and your horse are one entity.

The same is true for a walk with your dog. The fact that they can run off if they choose and yet they choose to return is a form of love in itself. It's a bonding, a very directed love.

Juanita: Would you breakdown the three stories in "The Horse with the Golden Mane"? What are they each about?

Russell: Juanita that is a real challenge because I don't want to give away the story. All the stories have a twist that will shock the reader. Let's start with Eric. The main character, Sol, is a refugee from a Nazi concentration camp who comes to America to start a new life. He finds a bloodied Doberman Pincher behind his store. These were the very animals he saw killing some of his fellow prisoners. But he and the dog become friends and one night while they are walking near a swampy area of a metro city, something happens that threatens their lives. The rest of the story relates their close bond and the struggle they both have to survive.

In Taj, the main character is a lawyer who races horses and falls in love with Taj. And Taj returns that love by racing only for Grant. When the horse is claimed away from him by other race owners, it is removed from his area. He cannot locate it. He loves the horse and wants to retire it from racing because it suffered an injury. So Grant Larsen goes in search of his horse, but before he does, his estranged daughter calls to tell him he has a grandson. She offers to help him locate his horse even though Grant's fiancée is not happy about the idea because she knows the hurt Grant sustained from his daughter.

Where Grant finds Taj and the circumstances that preventing him from getting him back immediately make an even more interesting tale since not only the recovery of his horse is at stake, but the recovery of a little crippled girl who has come to love Taj.

And The Horse with the Golden Mane is based on a concept of magic reality where someone is not certain if another person exists or not. There the question is whether or not Pierce Bernard, the main character, actually imagined his wife, Maya, or whether she really existed, whether she still does exist and whether or not his fixation that training an incorrigible red gelding will actually persuade her to return home turns out to be reality. So he sets out to train and ride the incorrigible horse, hoping that it will convince his wife he has changed and can return home again.

His quest to do that leads the reader into one channel after another until the shock ending when Pierce must face and confront a severe reality.

Juanita: Is there any truth to these stories?

Russell: Yes, there is.

Eric's story is completely true. Every event before and after and even those events contained in the Afterword are true. It wasn't difficult to write because I was actually reporting what I had seen and experienced. Even some of the dialogue is authentic. I'm not sure if that is really writing, but it makes for a fascinating story, one of the best I have ever done. I finished the story with a lot of regret because I had to leave Sol and Eric behind and move on to something else.

Taj is also true. Taj did race for us and for us alone and he was claimed and removed from New Jersey. My daughter and I were estranged. She ran off and got married against my wishes and I had not seen her in years. When she attempted telling me about my grandson, I wasn't very receptive to her call. But her sincerity and willingness to help and to reclaim her place as my daughter touched me and led to a reconciliation. It's really the story of a horse bonding father and daughter as well as finding a lost horse.

The Horse with the Golden Mane is based on a true event. In 1990, my wife was involved in a severe accident. After that, it would seem there were times when I could feel her next to me in bed, but when I turned, she wasn't there. A few moments later I would look again and there she was. Sometimes I thought I was going mad, inventing someone who really didn't exist.

So I started thinking: What if she really weren't there? What if she really died in that accident and I just invented her existence because I couldn't stand to lose my wife? On that night, I knew that Grant Bernard had been born. But I didn't know where he would end up until he told me. It was another vehicle for relating parts of my life. Lasco's really did exist. Grant really was a lawyer. Maya is based on a real person. That kind of thing.

Juanita: Russell, what keeps you inspired to write?

Russell: Approval and the desire to help. I think every writer wants approval of one sort or another. We struggle to be perfect in an imperfect world, to make a difference, to gain that pat on the back or that "yes, here's a check for your story." I also hope it will encourage other people to write of their experiences. No knowledge should be lost. No lifetime wasted.

Juanita: Russell, you've had experience rehabilitating abused animals, and include this issue in some of your writing. How does the experience of bonding with a previously abused animal differ from their unfettered counterparts?

Russell: When you gain a dog from birth or a new animal, the relationship is one of immediate trust and love. With an abused animal you really have to strive for that trust. We took on the Nikki of Tears and Tales and you couldn't raise your foot around her or pick up a fly swatter. In later years, I could do anything with her I wanted because she trusted me. That's love.

Red Leader, The Horse with the Golden Mane, was so abused my wife couldn't get in a stall with him and he'd charge right at you in the paddocks. Today I ride that horse on the trails and he is wonderful, follows me around the paddock like a pet dog. That's trust. Earned trust. And it's heart-warming. It's when you know that the love you have inside has molded something else in a positive force.

Juanita: Once again, you're pulling on readers heartstrings in this book. Russell, would you comment on the deeply emotional nature of your writing?

Russell: I am a very open-hearted and sincere person who is deeply touched by human or animal adversity. Others choose to go and help and that is generous and wonderful of them, but after they help, the lives of others go on untouched. By writing, I hope to make the help permanent. I hope to touch others so they will go out and help. I want others to adopt a Sweet Pea or Spunky or Red Leader. I want them to reap all the benefits from animals that I have over the years.

I write from the heart because I feel from the heart. That is why one reviewer from the Kentucky Monthly Magazine said of me in his review of Tears and Tales: And although the accounts are poignant, they are not over-wrought with cheap sentimentality."

I just don't have it in me to be dishonest or insincere and I guess it comes through in my writing. I even cry when I read my own stories because they are based on deeply emotional heartstrings for me.

Juanita: I notice that all three of the human characters in your new stories are men. Did you consciously choose this? Do you feel that men and women bond differently, or for different reasons than the other?

Russell: My main characters were all men because frankly I don't know if I can capture the essence of a female character. I know I will try one day, but I am not sure I can capture all the detail, the nuisances of how a woman might react in a situation. As I settle into writing and study more women perhaps I'll feel more secure. Right now, I know how men think. I have to learn how women do.

Not only that, but all these experiences were personal experiences so I am really writing about myself. The narrator in Eric was me. The father in Taj was me. Now, the man in Horse was a composite of several men but based on my own life's experience. I suspect that when I feel confident to move off myself I'll have a female character. Write what you know. Well, I know "me."

Juanita: Russell, what other projects are you working on?

Russell: I just finished a short story called "I'm Here" which is being submitted to a contest. I've written several short stories which I am collecting for various contests and eventually will be published as Street People: The Common and the Uncommon.

A book I've had a lot of demand for is Street Wise: Memoirs of the Mob. I grew up in a pretty tough neighborhood and my grandfather was part of the old Mafia. I had a lot of contact with mob people over the years and thought I might present another side to these people that the world seldom sees.

I have two partially finished books on the computer that might have been completed by now except for the marketing aspect of self-publishing. It just consumes a lot of time. One of them is the Search Beyond and yet another, The Last Ride, where a man and his horse are injured on an icy mountain top and face the elements.

Juanita: How can readers find out more about you and your books?

Russell: Well our web site is http://www.krazyduck.com that is with a K. They can email questions to Russ@krazyduck.com and sign up for our quarterly newsletter which is free and keeps everyone updated on the books and current events. My blog site is http://mykrazyduck.blogspot.com (it's in my newsletter to) in which we talk about our various travels to other countries. Our web site is chock full of information and you don't have to purchase a book to get our newsletter.

My books are carried on Amazon and most bookstores can order them, but we also distribute directly to the public and autograph as well. If they order directly from us, we also ship free and pay the sales tax.

Juanita: Russell, it has been great talking to you once again. Your new book "The Horse with the Golden Mane: Stories of Adventure, Mystery and Romance," is a fantastic compilation of stories and we certainly recommend it to readers. Before we depart today, do you have any final thoughts?

Russell: Well, I guess my first book didn't make the best sellers list but it has won three awards and has never had a review under five-stars. We were recently written up in Kentucky Monthly Magazine which, for a beginning author is creditable. But The Horse with the Golden Mane has something for everyone and I am confident it will win as many, if not more, awards. It's already been reviewed very favorably but several top reviewers and the results aren't all in as yet.

Horse, as I call it, transcends both gender and age. Both men and women can find something in it and enjoy it. Kids, both young and adolescent, can also find solid entertainment. And it's a clean book. No smut, so parents can be confident their children will be reading something with good moral values. I think that's important today.

I know they say you can't sell books if you don't have some sex in it. Well, I'd rather sell fewer books and know my grandchildren can read them, then hit the big numbers. Anyone who reads my books or short stories comes away with solid, core values.

10 Steps to a Quality Cisco Certification

With the rapid growth and expansion in the field of network technology, there is increasing demand for skilled network professionals. Cisco Systems has long been the industry leader in the field of data networking and continues to grow market share in all major technology areas, including those areas of current high demand such as voice, video, and wireless. Gaining experience with and certifications in Cisco technologies can provide a safe harbor for your career in uncertain economic times such as these. While many technology professionals are interested in Cisco certifications there is often confusion as to the best path to take and how to achieve a quality certification experience.

Achieving that quality certification experience is the key. Many of us have been in the industry long enough to hear the term "paper certifications" which refers to a certification gained by an individual with little resulting practical experience and knowledge; the certification is said to be worth as much as the paper it is printed on. When you make the decision to pursue a Cisco certification you should make the decision to pursue a quality certification, to which you will commit the investment of your time and energy with the goal of gaining the technical skill set and knowledge to make you a leader in the field. Without the drive and determination to earn the certification you are doing nothing more than memorizing answers and taking tests. This is how "paper certifications" are born; little effort is put in to learning the technology and little effort is put in to earning the certification.

Born Boots Reviews

To aid you in earning a quality Cisco certification I have put together a recommended set of steps that will assist you in making the right decisions along the way. These steps are designed to build an in-depth knowledge of the network technologies you are studying to pass your certification exams, while allowing you to maintain that knowledge for application in real-world scenarios while on the job.

^!@ Find, Buy Star Wars , Reviews, Overview, Price Step 1 - There Are No Experts.

In your career experiences you are likely to meet individuals who consider themselves an "expert" or "guru" in the field. This is often intimidating for people new in their technical careers. It shouldn't be and the reason is simple: there exists no such thing as an "expert" in the field of networking. There is so much technology in this field, with the technology changing and maturing so rapidly that it is impossible to know enough to be an "expert" in the subject. By the time you could learn enough to master the technology it has already become antiquated.

The breath and depth of network technology can be overwhelming. Remember that you do not need to know everything about networking to be a good network professional. Cisco offers so many areas of network technology that you can pick an area that interests you and focus on that area. As your career grows so too will your interest in other areas of network technology. As a starting point select one technology-such as telephony, data security, or wireless-and focus your energy on gaining knowledge and certification in just that area. Ignore the urge to learn everything as it will only rob you of your focus and delay your efforts to earn your certification.

Step 2 - Select an Area of Focus.

Cisco offers certifications in several areas of network technology. Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) certification tracks are focused on the core components of network technology; routing and switching. Cisco Certified Network Associate - Security (CCNA-Security) and Cisco Certified Security Professional (CCSP) certification tracks deal with network security technologies such as firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention, and the like. Cisco Certified Network Associate - Voice (CCNA-Voice) and Cisco Certified Voice Professional (CCVP) certifications are focused on telephony technologies. There are several other certifications available to choose from and it is important that you select the certification track that you find interesting and rewarding. Once you achieve your first certification you will likely want to work towards other certifications that interest you, but the key is to concentrate on one area of certification and to focus on that area as your specialty.

Step 3 - Invest in Your Future.

Gaining a certification takes an investment of both time and money. Before you sit for your first certification exam it is important that you spend your time and money in a manner that positively impacts the outcome. All too often an individual either fails to invent in the proper study materials or attempts to study from cheap or free study materials. This usually results in gaps in the knowledge the candidate is building, poor preparation and low exam scores.

Take the time to research the study materials available. While Cisco Press certification study books and guides are an excellent resource because they are written with the exams in mind, there are a wide range of other study materials-including books, videos, and test simulators-available to you. Do your homework before investing money in study materials by asking peers, co-workers, or by asking for recommendations on public Internet forums. Read book reviews on sites like Amazon.com, or seek out several of the Cisco CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) web sites or blogs. I have found that most CCIEs are more than willing to recommend good study materials they or their peers have used to obtain prerequisite certifications like the CCNA or CCNP.

Step 4 - Create a Study Plan.

It is not enough to simply study the material. You need to create a plan for how and when you will study and then stick to your plan. Develop a study routine and practice good study habits. Study away from distractions such as television, music or buzzing cell phones and schedule study time around meals so that hunger isn't breaking your concentration (having a glass of water and a few cookies nearby can help to keep you on task).

Remember that a single hour of quality study time is worth several hours of study filled with noise and interruption. To create these quality hours of study you need to devise a study plan that puts you in the right environment during the right time of day with limited interruption and distraction. Make sure that your study plan provides a minimum of two hours per day of quality study time and stick to your plan.

Step 5 - Study for Your Future, Not an Exam.

Depending on the certification you are studying for it may take several days or weeks of consistent study before you feel comfortable enough to pass the exam. Remember to study until you are confident that you know the material; you will know when you are ready. Refrain from scheduling an exam until you know you are ready, as you do not want to feel pressured by a looming exam date if it is taking longer to absorb the material than you anticipated. It is important to note that you will need to retain what you have studied for one exam as this knowledge will likely appear in some form on one of the other exams required for the certification. This is why I recommend studying for "the future" and not for an exam. Study to retain the information long term as you will need this information for one or more future exams. Study at a pace that allows you to retain the most information, and allow time to go back and review material that you may not feel completely comfortable with.

Passing Cisco exams require that you have a thorough understanding of the exam content. Because Cisco exams can cover several areas of technology each exam requires concentrated study as part of your preparation. Remember that you are studying for your future, not for an exam. Keep this in mind as you study and it will help you to stay on task and focused on the overall goal of achieving the certification.

Step 6 - Avoid the Easy Road.

This is one of the most important pieces of advice I can offer anyone studying for a technical exam. While it might seem easier to pay for cliff notes, brain dump exams (some of which are explicitly forbidden by Cisco as a study material and can result in your being barred from certification), boot camps, or other methods of "fast track" memorization using these options will not provide the same benefit as taking your time to study and learn the material. By memorizing material simply to pass the exams you are robbing yourself of the opportunity to learn the technology in-depth and to develop the understanding of the technology that you will need to apply in the real world. You can develop this understanding only from investing your time and energy to study the material as it should be studied.

The caveat to this step applies to experienced network professionals that may need to obtain a certification quickly by passing exams with little study time, often referred to as "testing out" of an exam. Often times a network professional has enough hands-on experience in real world environments to pass the exam with only a refresher of the material. The benefit of certification boot camps can be realized here, as the technical material is covered at a rapid pace to allow the certification candidate to sit for all required exams in short order. This is not the recommended path for those new to network technology or those with little experience in the field. Boot camps are typically recommended only for those individuals already having previous experience and the prerequisite knowledge to pass the exams.

Step 7 - Concentrate on One Exam at a Time.

You may find it tempting to study for more than one exam at a time; it is more common than you might think for many reasons. You might become bored of a particularly dry topic or study material and change focus to find something more interesting. The pressure of having to study for and pass several certification exams could create the perceived need to split your study time between multiple exams. No matter the reason it is usually not a good idea to try to study for multiple exams at one time. The continued change in focus from one topic to another can impede your ability to concentrate on and retain the material, preventing you from being as prepared for the exam as you could have been. Resist the urge and dedicate yourself to passing one exam at a time.

Step 8 - Balance Life and Study.

It is easy to become overwhelmed by certification study. The weeks of concentrated focus required to pass an exam can quickly consume you and raise the possibility of "burn out." You should spend as much time as required in studying for your certification exams but remember to make time for the other things in your life, as well. Taking routine breaks or stepping away from the books for a few hours is important. This will help to not only prevent your becoming bored with the material but will provide you will an opportunity to digest and reflect on the information you've learned so far.

Step 9 - Create a Study Guide.

One of the best ways to retain the material you are covering is to create your own "study guide". This is nothing more than a compiled list of the terms, details, and explanations of the information covered in your study materials. Include only the information which you find to be the most difficult or challenging for you to comprehend or memorize, as this will be the information that determines your grade on the exam. Break your study guide in to logical sections keeping related information together for quick reference. Make your study guide as simple to read through as possible.

On the day on your exam arrive at the testing center an hour early. Take this hour to sit in your car and quietly review your study guide; cover the material several times. By doing this you are refreshing your memory with the information you felt most difficult to retain, and this information will likely address the majority of difficult exam questions you will face. Cisco exams are "adaptive" in that the testing software will continually analyze the answers you provide and present additional questions to challenge you on your weakest areas. It is this information you are attempting to review prior to taking the exam. Once you feel you have adequately reviewed your study guide it is time to enter the testing center without delay and sit for the exam.

If you take the extra time to compile and use your personal study guide you will find it invaluable in achieving higher scores and a greater level of confidence. Remember too that information covered on one exam is likely to appear on the next. Reviewed past study guides prior to each exam in a certification track will be of great benefit.

Step 10 - Test Confidently.

When it is time to sit for the exam it is important to be confident. Rely on your studying to get you through the exam and remember the study guide material you reviewed earlier. If you have taken the time to properly study for the exam there is no reason to be nervous or anxious. Keep an eye on the test timer and make sure you are not spending too much time on any one question. Where you just don't know the answer narrow down the choices and make an educated guess; never leave a question unanswered. Don't worry about passing or failing, instead focus on achieving the highest score you can.

While taking the exam try to remember as many test questions as you can, especially those where you were not sure of the answer. If you do fail the exam put your emotions in check and head back to the car. Take a few minutes to write down every question you can remember and the answer you provided. Use this list by reviewing your answers against the study materials to see if you were correct, and if not what the correct answer should have been. These questions will likely appear again when you retake the exam and you will now be armed with the correct answer.

While these steps may be common sense to some of us for many they will be the keys to earning a certification. Follow these steps and you will not only pass the exams but also score higher. More importantly, you will retain the information you learn while studying and be able to apply that information in real-world network environments. Achieving a quality Cisco certification isn't a difficult endeavor. It takes dedication and commitment, but also a love of the technology. This single trait alone is the key to your certification. If you love the technology you will be more than willing to invest the time and energy in your own success as a Cisco certified professional.
