As a Metis writer I love writing for magazines, future books, photography,and travelling. When I’m home, speaking at Sunshine Speakers Toastmasters or out in the community makes my heart glad! My favorite goal-setting workshop inspires people to make their dreams come true.
In 2002 I published my bio/self-growth book Lessons From the Potholes of Life. In it are 26 stories of the times I fell into the potholes of life, resulting in valuable diamond lessons. Each chapter is followed by an exercise for discerning readers. It’s temporarily out-of-print.
That was so exciting that I produced several chap books …first one on good health, the second on happy marriage, a perpetual calendar, followed by several mini bios for friends.
Telling the story of our 2003 RV adventures across Canada, I self-published RV Canada On A Dime And A Dream in 2007. Based on our working holiday coast to coast in an old motor-home loaded with Dave’s Driftwood, books, and blackberry sauce, the book has encouraged people not to let age nor lack of finances stop them from making their dreams come true.
“Challenge is the elixir of youth.” James Gordon
That was so much fun we took the book along with 195 jars of blackberries and driftwood on a 19,962 km. odyssey to Newfoundland Labrador and back in 2007. All this has led to me being a speaker at several RV shows, besides writing articles for Snowbirds & RV Travel, RV Times and Whispering Winds magazines.
June 24-27/10 At RV Lifestyle Seminars in Kelowna, I showed: ”10 Provinces: 10 Best Kept Secrets” and “Grizzlies and Gravel North of 60.” What a fun filled weekend of boondocking on the Okanagan College grounds, catching up with old friends and learning from over 40 seminars. We highly recommend RV’ers of all levels of experience attend. Mark your calendar for June 24-27,2011. We won’t be there because we’ll be back up north launching the next RV book.

When I’m not writing, travelling, working with the Sunshine Speakers Toastmasters club, or organizing the Powell River Writers Conference I’m hosting a writer’s retreat or workshop.

With my 100 dreams list in hand, there will always be another dream to live, another group or person to encourage , another captivating speech to give or another book to write.
