Books to inspire! The ripple effect of the written and spoken word can be profound. It is for that reason that I hope the books and stories shared within not only inspire, but uplift all those that embrace them. It is with deep gratitude that I thank you for visiting today.

What i do
I harness the written word to inspire and uplift others to the magic and wonders of nature.
I offer books written by me or that which I am a contributing author. I also share 'favorite' books that have inspired me, and offer them here for you to explore and experience.
why I do it
There is a saying – where there is connection, there is protection. In a time when so many have lost their connection to the natural world, I hope that through my writing and the writing of others, we can help bridge that gap and spark a curiosity that will help realign that connection with Mother Nature.
