WelcomeWELCOME and thank you for visiting. May the material you find here enliven you. Three books have seen print - or reprint - in 2006. Poetry collection,Rapture: Love of the Heart, is available in both an E-book and a new print edition as of Dec. 2006. Living A Radical Peace made its debut in October 2006. July 2006 welcomed the return of Moonlight on the Ganga as back-in-print thanks to the Author's Guild Back-In-Print Program via their contract with iUniverse. Different books in style, but they all share Higher guidance. Living A Radical Peace  is founded on the principle inherent in the question: 'To whose authority do we owe our allegiance - the authority of "manna" or of our Source?'Rapture, is a collection of my mystic/ Moonlight on the Ganga is a travel memoir of my experiences while strolling along the Ganges River in India when I allowed myself (despite my corporate upbringing) to see with 'non-physical eyes' thus beckoning a new beginning for myself - and an enjoyment my readers. (It's now Back-In-Print, too)People have asked me, "Why do you write what you do?" My writing has always been meant to benefit others as well as express myself. Yet, there is a deeper core to the story, so let me ask you this - Have you ever done something in your life thinking you understood exactly why you were doing it only to discover afterwards that there were reasons and forces at play you couldn't have comprehended earlier? Isn't it amazing how much better things turn out when we allow ourselves to trust and follow the flow? I ignored the currents calling to me for a long time, distracting myself with the plentiful 'busy-ness' of leisure amusements and a business career. Yet, as a precocious child of 8 I'd announced to my father, "I've got to save someone." At age 11 I'd professed to a backyard full of adults that "I'm not going to settle like adults do!" Early in life I desired to write and travel, and my professed 'radical' viewpoints were allowed flowering, creative, and loud expression (where else but?) in college during those turbulent "anti-war" 1970s. But spirituality, metaphysics, indeed the entire concept of God/ In ignoring or rejecting any inclination to consider these, I ended up riding on a different train for many years, as I embarked on a business career of increasingly stringent and structured rules and focus (with increasing salary and benefits and lots of travel, too). It would be decades before I connected again - quite momentously during a business meeting - with the call of my soul, quit my 20-year career, resurrected my love of writing, and looked into the "eyes of eternity" that reflected God's Light and Peace in all life - and within me. That's why I write. It's part of my contract. *************************************************** SUBSCRIBE TO FREE E-NEWSLETTER Go to this website's NEWSLETTER page in order to subscribe to my free bi-monthly e-newsletter.
