About John Cecca Books
Welcome to stories that stay with you! I write fun, fast-paced books for curious kids aged 9 and up—packed with adventure, imagination, and just the right challenge for growing readers. At the end of every book, you’ll find a glossary and interesting discussion questions to keep the conversation going. And whether you’re curled up at home, riding in the car, or on a beach somewhere, there’s an ebook and audiobook version to come along for the ride. Reading (and listening) has never been this fun!
Welcome to a space where words slow the rush of life. This collection of poetry and haiku drifts between the personal and the philosophical, sometimes venturing into the speculative. Accompanied at times by photographs and quiet observations, these pieces invite you to revisit places and moments you may have passed in a blur. Here, the poet offers strobing glimpses of regret, mistakes, and realization—snapshots of thought and emotion meant for quiet reflection and private enjoyment.
Orion’s Soulmates is a fast-paced speculative thriller where science, myth, and spirituality collide! When a brilliant archaeology student discovers a mysterious artifact in the jungles of Belize, her life takes a dramatic turn. Teaming up with a group of top scientists at Harvard, she uncovers a secret that powerful forces will do anything to suppress. From Boston to Area 51, Rome to Chennai, their quest unravels a hidden history that could change the world. Blending mystery, global adventure, and human connection, Orion’s Soulmates challenges everything we thought we knew about who we are—and where we come from.
MUSIC
Welcome To:
John Cecca Music.
Music has always been another way for me to tell a story. Some songs begin with a memory, others with a passing thought, a place I've visited, or simply a question that refuses to let go. Whether I'm writing a contemporary country ballad, an instrumental journey, or a dance track, every song begins with the same goal—to create something that connects with the listener.
This site is a growing collection of original songs spanning many musical styles, including Contemporary Country, Americana, Dance, World Fusion, Instrumentals, and more. Each piece reflects a different moment in the creative journey, yet they all share a common thread: a love of storytelling, melody, and the emotions that shape our lives.
As you explore the catalog, you'll find music to enjoy, lyrics to read, and the stories behind many of the songs. Every release includes convenient listening links so you can hear the music on your preferred streaming service. Complete lyrics are also available throughout the site for those who enjoy exploring the words behind the music.
For artists, producers, publishers, and music professionals, this catalog represents an ever-growing collection of original songwriting. Many of the songs are available for consideration as recording projects, collaborations, or licensing opportunities. My hope is that these songs will continue their journey through the voices and interpretations of others.
Thank you for visiting and for sharing in this musical journey. Whether you're here to listen, read, discover, or simply browse, I hope you'll find a song that brings back a memory, sparks your imagination, or stays with you long after the music fades.
Welcome, and enjoy the journey.
