My Baby Is Born!!
Months of work, worrying and waiting are over: RV Canada With Boo The Menopausal Van is born! My 3rd book in seven years but it’s so thrilling to see boxes of books in our living room. The “pregnancy” is over, now we need to nurture it and make it grow . . . Get out and tell the whole world about it!
Watch for announcements about Boo products (glasses, photos etc) coming soon. June 1 we’ll take her on a four month Great Northern tour up to the Yukon, North West Territories and Alaska. Go to the Books and Publications page to see the book, read a bit about it and order copies.
My niche is pursuing my love of writing, giving inspiring speeches and travelling. 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. Unfortunately it is 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 Dave and my courageous working holiday coast to coast in an old motor-home loaded with Dave’s Driftwood, books, and blackberry sauce, the book has taken the RV world by storm. We have encouraged people from coast to coast to not let age nor lack of finances stop them from making their dreams come true . . . BEFORE it’s too late!
“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 hit at several RV shows, besides writing articles for RV Times and Whispering Winds magazines.
“RV Canada With Boo The Menopausal Van” was launched at the Chilliwack Humdinger RV Show March 19-22 to a great response from people who’d been “following” us through magazine articles or because they’d bought the first book. From there we launched it in Powell River at the March 27,28 6th annual Powell River Festival of Writers.
