With their adult children living nearby, the Olivarez home is often filled with laughter, shared meals, and moments that echo the heart of his writing.

"Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite times of the year," Carlos shares. "It's not about the big things; it's about looking around the table and realizing how much you've already been given. That's what I try to capture in my stories, gratitude for life as it is, even when it's imperfect."

Readers experience a healing journey that transcends time, one that reminds us that it truly takes a village to produce greatness. It is so easy to find joy and love in everyday life, if we open our eyes and our hearts

Through his writing, he captures the complexity and beauty of everyday life in Dallas, weaving in themes of redemption and the power of community.
