Would you relive a painful past if it meant you could alter your future?
A standalone literary novel, REASONS Three Lives One Soul is a stirring portrait of the powerful clash between the light and shadow within us.
The hero of your story is you. And you will inspire us all. Here’s one way how:
Books to make you the hero of your story. These are the books I write. They are the stories of new beginnings and second chances.
Life is unpredictable. Living it, we take a remarkable journey of joys and sorrows. But sometimes, as the years go by, we are not so sure if we are learning and growing as much as we would like. We wonder if we are making a useful difference in the world.
In any case, the hero of your story is you.
You want to go beyond surviving life’s challenges to thrive, right? I know I do. Because to thrive, with compassion, wisdom, and generosity, is how we will make a useful difference in the world.
Like me, you know adversity and embrace hope. You value resilience and personal transformation. Yet sometimes the path toward positive change is hard to see. It is for you I write—for you who wants a story mirroring real life and, as a means toward finding that path forward… includes a wee bit of persuasive magic—the existential mysteries of life that spur us into second chances and new beginnings.
Let’s work together.
I write stories that don’t shy away from the darker nature of our human experience and shed light on the paths toward being one’s best self… despite, if not because of, our challenges.
You read the stories I write, and then find your unique way to inspire us all.

As an author, creating a connection with readers is paramount. I write fiction with three key elements: trauma/tragedy, hope, and transformation.
I have published one novel and am in the editing stages of my second novel. I love what I do. When I am writing and creating stories, I am more myself than ever.
I have two published composition notebooks, both themed to complement my novel REASONS three lives, one soul. The notebooks come with beautiful graphics, including the interior, and inspiring phrases every fifth page. The phrases come straight from the wise characters found in the novel.
As a journal and notebook user, I know how good it feels to get my thoughts down on paper. Whether we use notebooks for note taking, essay writing, lyric writing, dream catching, poetry, ideas, gratitude, or just getting our thoughts organized, they are truly satisfying, are they not? Cheers.
Connecting with you, the book lovers who know a book (fiction or non-fiction) can change you for the better, is my quest. Sharing stories that might help another soul wandering this beautiful planet hurtling through space and tracing its orbit… is awe-inspiring to me.
We can make our own second chances and new beginnings. I try to convey this truth through my books, this website, and the blog within it. If you have a minute or two, look around. I would love to know what you think.

Backstory.
A bit about me.
Many of us are aware of the connection between reading and writing in education, and how being a voracious reader can help a student to become an effective writer.
This is why journal writing is so helpful.
When I was about eleven years old, my parents gifted me my first journal. It was a powder blue color. I wish I could remember fully what it looked like, but, alas, I cannot. However, I remember the emotion attached to having it. Back then, my family did not call it a journal. We called…
Why do we love the horizon so much?
Why do we love the horizon so much? Ahh… the horizon. Is it the beauty of a fiery, pink-hued setting sun that draws us in? Or is it the gloriously glowing orb that rises to a new day that captivates us most? In the sunset, we see accomplishment, a toning down, a calmness. In the…
Learn how to recognize and understand your map of life
About two weeks ago, I was taking part in a short, guided meditation. During it, the speaker asked participants to imagine the turning points in their life… and suggested visualizing these moments as the connecting dots of an upward trajectory—and the creation of “the map of your life so far.” For many of us, one…
Learn how to generate more joy in your life.
Learn how to generate more joy in your life. What does joy feel like? Does joy feel the same for you as it does for me? These are questions that crossed my mind one rainy afternoon when joy seemed distant and a wishful thought. I want more joy in my life, so I wondered if,…
Learn how to enjoy having your creative work critiqued
Learn how to enjoy having your creative work critiqued might sound like an impossible assignment, but, in my experience, releasing the dislike or fear is about mindset. As I’ve mentioned in an earlier blog post, the value of creating relationships with critique partners, I remember the jitters that came when first handing off a manuscript…
What to do when Friends or Family Let Us Down?
When friends or family let us down, it hurts. It just does. And there’s no way around the associated pain. It sucks. When friends or family let me down, I can feel isolated, alone… and maybe even feel as if I’m not important to them. So… What to do when Friends or Family Let Us…
