I am currently working hard on getting my latest short story collection "Voted Off the Crew" into print. What excites me about this book is that it tells so many key stories of my own life growing up in this amazing place called Alberta. If you enjoy short stories, please sign up for my online book launch and also sign up for my giveaway. Check out my website for more information about me and my writing. I was born in a small city that was full of life and opportunities to find happiness. I had a lot of love in my family, my parents were good to me, though as I grew older I started to slowly develop manic depression/Bipolar Disorder. If you don't know what bipolar is, just go back a while and look at Charlie Sheen. You can recover from an illness like bipolar, but it takes time, care, support and medication. I wrote my book, "Through The Withering Storm" to help people to understand more about my illness and maybe get some help themselves or for a person they care about. I also maintain a blog where I talk about mental health issues which can be found below
