Away from my writing, my life is far from easy. Being able to express myself takes the edge off what I deal with mentally and emotionally.

I still have to get on in the 'real world’ with a mental disability. Where I would have had an easier ride with the mental tools, I have had to equip myself.

In Cerebral Palsy: A Story 'Finding the Calm After the Storm' I use reflection to navigate my life. Where life is difficult and our experiences challenging, I use universal techniques to show how you can turn your life around.

My book gives us the passion to want to see and be better, an interest, a wish to come through our own set of circumstances; to be able to see the positive. Where you are a spectator, my book allows for self-evaluation.

My book helps to inspire positivity and change and to evaluate our experiences. My book can help you to move forward with confidence, so you can change your life.

  1. It's a cracking book and everyone should buy it. If people are already reading your blogs, in Covid-19 times they will know your book will be the perfect accompaniment.

    I hope people will go out and buy it.

  2. I really appreciate your rugged determination to be a successful writer and author. Always writing to give something back, to serve others less fortunate.

    Thank you.

    1. My life working out in the way it has, was never intentioned in my formative years. It happened out of necessity.

      Others choosing to support me, so I can continue to write, that's all I need. I feel and given Covid-19 it has become even more important that we are able to support one another.

      Through positivity my book brings hope. I hope people will get behind me and buy the book.
