Early American, colonial period as described by author, Kenneth Roberts, and live life as it comes. Adore his writing and that period of history.

Jean,
Thank you for asking! The book is available to be purchased on-line from Amazon, B&N, and others as both e-book and paperback.
Might I ask, once you've read it and if you have a moment, could you post some words on Amazon? Just received my 21st 5-star review and 26 seems to be the magic number for the algorithms to increase the visibility there. All the best in Costa Rica!!
Cheers ... Carla

Not much time to read lately but when I do find those precious moments, it's Daniel Silva. I adore his writing ... not just the plots ... but his writing. One sentence sticks ... An individual is urgently pressing a doorbell button ... "which sounded with the urgency of an angry infant." Those few words convey ... pardon the pun ... volumes.
Rest of the summer is teaching workshops for Write to Influence! and developing a work book for the middle school level. I still work for the government ... so, time is definitely a precious commodity.

Best thing about being a writer -- being able to help people whom you've never met. Leaving behind thumbprints beyond your wildest expectations.

Follow your dream. If you have a story within (again, fiction or nonfiction) ... get it out of your soul and into media. Don't delay -- do it!

I published this book. So, currently my focus is on breathing life into this baby ... working hours daily (in addition to my job with the government) to enhance its visibility to the reading public. That includes a huge learning curve for this "old dog" ... turning 62 in Aug ... What's the learning curve? Working social media ... These questions I just found here are great examples. Hope they are not too stale!
My next project -- gathering data now -- is for a workbook for middle school grades, taking Write to Influence! to that level of student.

It comes from the soul. At heart, I'm a story teller, a tour guide. Even non-fiction writers are story tellers. Each time a writer takes a reader by the hand he/she takes the reader on a journey. That brings tremendous joy.

Powerful writing changes lives -- I learned that when I commanded a squadron of 480 officers and enlisted personnel in Hawaii. Winning award or promotion packages propelled careers; helped families; and extrapolated, better enabled parents to send kids to college … all based on the power of the written word. The techniques I developed then and taught for the following 15 years are even more relevant -- and needed -- today. My techniques work. How do I know? Testimonials of former students. Incredibly gratifying to be able to help others. I simply had to write this book.
