A Woman’s Song is a collection that doesn’t hold back. The poems are raw, fearless, and full of emotion, capturing everything from love and resilience to pain and injustice. Some are quiet and reflective, others hit like a punch to the gut. --JK Morrison

What makes The Visitor shine is its blend of emotional depth and sci-fi intrigue. Waldman balances existential mystery with subtle social commentary, raising questions about memory, control, and the fragility of reality. -- Jim on Amazon

The Visitor takes a simple premise and turns it into a layered exploration of identity, memory, and what it means to belong in your own skin...Thoughtful, eerie, and memorable. — Cecilla Adams

[An] intriguing & compelling tale... [A] parody of what is happening in the country today with 'aliens'. Very clever and at times humorous. This read offered humor, suspense and engaging characters.-- Janet M. on Amazon

President Wulff wants to lock up (and study?) suspected literal (from out there) aliens. They disappear; no one knows where they go. Find out more in my new novel THE VISITOR.

Faulkner said that an author's job is to make the extraordinary seem ordinary and to make the ordinary seem extraordinary, and in Petty Offenses this is what Waldman accomplishes. -- Cybersoleil Journal

In Petty Offenses, subtle paradoxes & paradigmatic shifts undermine the reader's sense of stable themes. Waldman's writing...by not calling attention to itself all the more reveals everyday life as taking place on a far grander scale than we imagine. - Paul A. Toth

I got a rejection recently saying "We don't publish stories with politics or religion as the primary plot device. This is too blunt and we have limitations as an online publisher."

I truly believe writers NEED to speak out about what is happening today politically in the U.S. This is not the USSR.
