Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have been a practitioner of mysticism for over 40 years as a member of The Rosicrucian Order AMORC. I have also studied many forms of intuitive healing including Reiki, Core Belief Engineering and more.
I have currently 5 non-fiction books on Amazon, 4 focused on mind management, body energy and core beliefs as well as one on long distance walking. My newest release is a fiction book called The Ascenders Return To Grace Book 1. It is a fun but serious book about possibilities. What would happen if we could overcome our limitations?
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Ascenders Return To Grace Book 1 is part of a series I am writing. I channeled the original manuscript. My goal in this series is to provide a fun story filled with inspirational concepts and tools that invite people to join the spiritual evolution. My feeling is that by offering it as a fiction story, it would open up a new, virgin market for myself and other non-fiction writers in the self-help industry.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Just channeling. I do most of my writing while sitting on a ferry as that is where I seem to find myself a great deal.

Richard Bach, Carolyn Myss, Shirley Maclain, James Redfield, Louise Hay

Do you have any advice for new authors?
