This summer I plan to enjoy all that Mother Nature has to offer, and in all honesty I believe the only thing I shall be reading are wine labels and the night sky!!

After spending several years writing my own blog and various articles, I realised it was time to put all the knowledge and wisdom into a book.

Be yourself, and allow your true character to shine. Don't raise expectations too high, particularly about the popularity or uptake of your book. It takes time and effort to build a following, particularly on a limited budget. Self publishing is a long term investement in yourself, and in today's competitive world, it is crucial to stay positive! I also believe that the day you begin to write the first chapter, is also the day you begin to plan create the brand that will be associated with the book.

It is important that the words flow naturally, especially when writing non-fiction. I tend to auto-write, and when the words come, they just flow. There are times when I am stuck to complete a chapter, at this time I tend to save the files, and then revert back at a later date. Spending lots of time in nature or close to running water, is a good place to overcome writer's block!

My life journey has taken me to some amazing places in the world, where I have connected with some amazing people. It has been an adventure, to say the least. But it has allowed me to truly see the way we have evolved. There have been many times I have known and felt something deep inside, guiding me sometimes down paths better left alone. But I have returned a better person, stronger for the experience.

The past few years especially have been spent trying to get to know "Who I am,” and why certain things keep happening. I have therefore been led to retreat into solitude -- to reflect upon the set of core issues that continue -- without careful monitoring -- to cause me to have doubts and feelings of diminished self-worth.
I want you to learn why you might be having similar self-doubts - and to learn what you can do about them.
Love Outside The Box is the culmination of my desire to help others. This guide will help you to see clearly things you might not want to see -- but things that, when confronted -- will help you heal and be made whole again. Only through a commitment and investment into self can we truly appreciate and experience the power we possess. For, in the final analysis, love is an awesome power we all possess and can share without conditions or expectations.
