BOOKS

Storytelling is the heart and soul of the human experience. Without stories, we are nothing.

Books serve as repositories of human wisdom, preserving cultural heritage, and conveying profound insights. They function as conduits of escapism, allowing readers to immerse themselves in fictional worlds, or as educational tools that enlighten and inform. Each published book carries a unique voice, telling a story or presenting ideas that reflect the author’s perspective and resonate with readers on a personal level.

My published books range from ESL textbooks to health memoirs. They represent a wealth of knowledge, imagination, and expression.

My books are still gracing bookstore shelves and they are also available in digital format. They are enduring testaments to the power of language, especially in teaching the English language as that is where my skillsets are often in demand here in Taiwan. They communicate the enduring human desire to educate, entertain, and enlighten.

It makes me happy knowing that my books contribute to the tapestry of human knowledge, while also fostering connections and shared experiences across time and cultures.

My Several Worlds: A Coloring Adventure for Spoonies offers pages of inky delight to remind you that you are strong, beautiful, and uniquely you. You are NOT broken! This book is made for Spoonies by a full-time Spoonie who has been using art as a coping tool for chronic illness and chronic pain since 2009. MySeveralWorlds.com is about the worlds that I live in and the boundaries that blur between my worlds as I move through them.

“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” ~ Pablo Picasso

Author compilation books are very fashionable and they are a great way to read stories across many kinds of genres. I’ve always been a big believer in supporting editors who choose to create books in this way.
