A Chicago, Illinois native with a fondness for sweets, Sean C. Cusack believes that every person goes through an internal struggle to find their true purpose in life. How else, then, could he re-create this struggle for readers, if not with his love of sweets? Sean C. Cusack creates a vivid, colorful world of cookies, doughnuts, and other sweet treats that allows readers to see the sweeter side of life, and less the about struggles, that Chip endures in his path to becoming something special. Sean C. Cusack's novels High School Memoirs: A Journey in Surrealism and Code 3: The Rise & Fall of a Private Ambulance Empire, as well as his more recent publication, One Tough Cookie, further demonstrate Cusack's dedication to expressing the inner dilemma of finding one's niche in life in a relatable way. And, as a huge fan of the Chicago Cubs, Sean C. Cusack realizes that, while not everyone gets there, finding one's calling in life can truly be a dream worth fighting for. While immortalizing the story of the ultimate underdog, like Chip, Sean C. Cusack's works further exemplify that the road to one's success can be a turbulent and compelling adventure.
