My first book… is a quirky, illustrated story-about-my-life… told as a poem… and intended for grown-ups.
Children can read it too if they want (parental guidance suggested for readers younger than 10)… but the book wasn’t intended as a children’s book.
The book is about how I lost myself… my MUCH’ness... my ME’ness… because I was trying so bloody hard to fit in and be normal. And it’s about the impact that those decisions had on me… and (happily)… it’s about how I found myself again (decades later). And how I learned to embrace and accept my unique’ness (exactly as I am – warts ‘n all)… and how I learned to take off my fake “I’m-fine” masks, step out of the shadows – and BE who I really am.

Creating this book changed my life. Seriously. The very process of writing and illustrating this story awakened me to my purpose and passions in ways that I could never have imagined.
To everyone who has supported this project thus far – THANK YOU! Your support and encouragement mean the world to me… xx
