Not always. Steve LeBel - hospital president, technology entrepreneur, algorithmic trader - is definitely not serious. Not when he writes. Whimsy overcomes him at the word processor. Whimsy is at the core of his novel, The Universe Builders, which is told with LeBel's unique balance of seriousness, humor, and whimsy. Steve lives in Muskegon, Michigan with his wife and two cats. When not writing, he can be found cursing the stock market, or thinking up new plots for The Universe Builders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 428\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.95 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 07, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54727041122595,"sku":"9780991055401","price":31.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/4836\/2275\/files\/E5mFSEF7Ts9780991055401.webp?v=1770783599","url":"https:\/\/chaptersafterdarkbookstore.com\/products\/the-universe-builders-bernie-and-the-putty-humorous-fantasy-and-science-fiction-for-young-adults-paperback","provider":"Chapters After Dark Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
