Just keep writing and the journey gains momentum!


What have learned since my first book and all of it's updates?

It can be an expensive ride!! Paying for ads, services to format your book, illustrate, proof read and find the correct SEO's or Keywords to list your book under!

Yikes!! I decided to think of it as an 'investment' rather than focusing on the budget. I have not sold 100's of copies of my first book...yet. I believe my books will reach the souls it is meant to be read by.

Meanwhile, I teamed up with my BFF, Missy Richardson (best friend) to co-author a second book with! What a fun journey this has been. It all started when Missy told me about a daydream she had while watching jellyfish in the ocean float by a plastic bag that was slowly sinking into the ocean. She imagined that the jellyfish and the bag fell in love! 

That's all I needed! We started bouncing ideas back and forth and our book came to life. Actually, once we found our amazing illustrator, Myloh ( our jellyfish) truly came to life!!

"When Myloh met Sorry"


We went on to translate Myloh into 6 languages!
It was fun to work with the translators, many of them friends who I have met during my travels in Europe.
You can read about them and the book on our website!

Keep writing....there are so many books waiting to be written and someone waiting to read a grand adventure!

  OH! Christmas Tree...Real vs. Fake?! What is my carbon foot print...?? Recently, I was teaching my students about Real vs Fake Christmas trees and I was shocked! I thought I was doing something GOOD for the environment by NOT cutting down a tree at the Christmas Tree Farm. (just reuse the same tree every year, right?) Well, everyday I learn new facts! Support the tree farmers, produce oxygen, recyclable and no emissions into the air from factories that make plastic trees. Oh CHRISTMAS TREE!!! I have always loved nature. Now, more than ever the earth needs us to be accountable for our part to give back. Our carbon footprint..... I started writing "Myloh's Adventures" series with my Co-Author Missy Richardson with our first book centering around the hazards of helium balloon release. Helium balloons are so magical when they are released. They drift aimlessly along a sunny sky and we can make a wish. Until the balloon deflates and finds it's way to the ocean and wra...
