Most often, readers ask, "Who influenced you?"

I share Dr. King's dream.

Additionally, you can see my bookshelves here where I review and rate every book I remember reading.

Besides the Saardu series, which is my way of explaining death and the circle of life, I write of personal pain and overcoming. For example, "10 Most Annoying Things People Say to NICU Parents (...when they're only trying to help!)" Grief is universal, but each of us enters and exits it in our own ways.

My greatest literary influences are Professor Richard Walter, who teaches Advanced Screenwriting for MFA students at the UCLA film school. He taught me everything I needed to know about the ancient art of storytelling. The American poet, E.E. Cummings (don't lecture me about upper/lowercase--he preferred E.E., do some research and you'll find that out), is dear to me and I carry him as my spiritual grandfather in my heart. Poetry was my first love, especially freestyle. Kurt Vonnegut, when asked why he wrote fiction novels, answered that he did so to reach the minds of young people before they become Senators and Generals, to "infect them with humanity."

That is my passion. I aim to give my descendants a more harmonious world. I also love to have fun and make fun, and encourage playfulness and spontaneity!

I hope you find my work as transformative as my husband does.

This book is no longer available. It has been revised and retitled Mars 2992 Intervention, as part of my 11D Zenyan Mythology series of science fantasy books, which I describe as String Theory meets Twilight Zone.
