Before the New Year's Resolutions - a lesson learned in 2013
In January 2012 I began my adventure as an author with the publication of my first novel, 'The Palaver Tree.'

As an overall take away from this book, the author masterfully illustrates the overwhelming inter connectivity of our natural world, how we cannot do or undo something without the inevitable knock-on effect. In Silent Earth, Dave Goulson’s admiration ...more |

Despite several reviewers labelling the author of this book as pro Russia, there was nothing in this story of Zelensky’s early life, television career and presidency to indicate anything but a fair and balanced account of the man. The story of a vast ...more |

“Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.”

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
