Dr. George Cluen is passionate about the journey of transformation, especially as it relates to growing out of loss, reflection, and the quiet choice to keep moving forward. With a background in psychology and chiropractic, he has spent much of his life exploring how people heal, change, and find meaning beneath the surface of their experiences. Through story rather than instruction, his debut novel, Sage of the Mountains, blends inspirational fiction with timeless self-help principles, guiding readers through an allegorical journey of resilience, surrender, self-discovery, and spiritual awakening. A devoted husband and father of four, George lives in Washington, where the mountains, rivers, and forests fuel his imagination. When he’s not writing, he can be found outdoors hiking, traveling, or sharing adventures with his family and friends. His love for nature and storytelling reflects his belief that every path, whether on a trail or within the heart, carries lessons about resilience, faith, and renewal. Through his writing, George hopes to help others see that their own struggles can become stepping stones toward growth, healing, and a life of deeper purpose.
