- Something About Me and My Book:
- Looking back over my life, it seems I have lived several in my 48 years. My intent since youth has been to leave behind a most colorful portrait of memory and experience. In doing so, I have left a trail full of both peace and destruction at different times. But I have lived full, and drive to continue in the same manner. Live well and be courageous! Fear nothing and seek your passion!
I am very relationship oriented; not in a simple and superficial way, but intensely deep. I am always looking deeper into a person than what they present on the surface. I seek to know what is truly inside of them and how I can help to bring it closer to the surface.
During the past fifteen years, I have increasingly focused my attention and energies on helping to build people – to move them to a place they already know exists within them, but fear moving toward it. I have done this with speaking, writing and personal attention. I have written plays with a certain target audience in mind and taken them to several places in the U.S. to perform. This has all been done free and for the purpose of drawing the better out of people. (one of these plays was Choose You Must - now becoming a novel)
I am moving my life at a much faster pace than previously. I am writing ferociously with two more books to finish this year (2009) and one early 2010. I feel strongly I am called to bring each one to you. And for this reason I write them, no other.
My purpose on this earth is to facilitate growth in others. Not from a program I develop and seek profit from, but from the depth of each individual. We each have our own place of being, we simply fear the path, or are blinded to it by so many outside influences and forces. My call is to bring you to your own path and help show you it is not only safe to travel, but also most rewarding.
Live Life! And live it to your inner potential...the one you have probably hidden away in a dark corner because of limits others have placed upon you. Go for it!
Life in Poetry and Prose is available in hard copy and electronic form. The electronic copy is available only on my website. The works are truly amazing, inspiring encouraging, and thought provoking. Each piece is an exact reflection of some part of real life and is full of transparency.

Sample from Life in Poetry and Prose
Sandcastle Life
Laboring strong all the days of his life,
he builds his castle, but fills it with strife.
Towering high, above all those below,
peering over the land, his father bestowed.
Barren and empty are acres of field;
his spirit so damaged, yet not willing to yield.
Surrounding his castle lays a great moat,
holding at bay those he wants close.
A functioning drawbridge placed in the wall,
has never been opened and never will fall.
Each moment inside him, a midnight so dark;
a journey so needed, but he fears to embark.
The building continues, on his castle so grand;
covering his pain, he works with his hands.
Aching inside, yet avoiding his truth,
a lonely path he’s traversed, beginning with youth.
Leading to nowhere but lost and alone,
he bends to continue, as he adds one more stone.
Seeing his work, brings tears to my eyes;
wasting his labor, decaying his life.
The towers grow higher, but empty they are;
his spirit so lonely, so damaged and scarred.
Building and dreaming he hopes they arrive,
but alone he will live in his sandcastle life

Contained within the vast array of human existence lies something that has confounded man since the beginning of recorded time; the marriage relationship. Humans are unique among earth’s living creatures. One of the grandest attributes we are endowed with is the ability to self-fulfill our dreams and desires, to become what we choose and attempt to manifest ideas, having been created with the ability to accomplish these things. But, like with all good things, choice… Continue

There is far too much grief in this world, and most of it is unnecessary. Some believe grief and discord stem from an evil in our midst. Although I agree there is evil, I also believe the reasons for the existence of grief and discord are rooted in other areas I will explain. However, a case can be made, and will be by some, that all bad things are rooted in the great evil that roams our earth; that being the devil, itself. Nevertheless, let’s create and join in, a… Continue

Your help requested
This is a draft version. It is part of Meeting the God of America, a book i am desperately trying to complete. If you would please, read and express your feelings on flow.
thank you
Christian
Meeting the God of America is a novel concept. I toyed with the idea of using a small “g” for God because I am becoming less confident that the god we claim is the God I know, or at least am getting to know. His attributes, which are supposed to be woven through us,… Continue

Congratulations on your book, Life in Poetry and Prose. I just wanted to mention to you a website I built called AlreadyPublished.com. It's for authors to promote their book. You do so by posting your book's first chapter, giving readers a peek into your book. The site is free and the list of books is growing, so please check it out. :) BTW, good luck with your book!
p.s. You can also check out this blog post on the Already Published Ning Network, I explain how to post your book. You can also learn more about the website there.
Best,
John
You've been on my heart, so here I am. Please knoe you and Gina are in my prayers. Also, you may not even realize this at all, but the Lord has used you in a mighty way...many of them. The MTGA project has united so many of us, and brought so much blessing. Thank you for being who you are and for your heart. God knows your heart, my friend. Lean into Him... God bless you anf keep you ~ Peace, Cherie
Ciao!
You're awesome, Christian!
Yes, I am working on my bio. Never really put one together before, so I am checking others out to get an idea what I want to disclose about myself. After all, I do have an image to uphold. Shooting for having it completed tonight. Ciao!
Your music made me realize that what I am doing to take care of my mom who has ALZ is right and not to care about what others think. My mom is home and has 24 hour care at home and I have been told I should have placed her in home. I know that she does not always say the nicest things and does not always know who I am, but you are right I will always be there for her and remember all that she did for me. Fran
Thanks.
You obviously have had a rewarding life and I'm sure you help many people.
I have had a pretty good life myself and am still very active at 76.
Best of luck with your books.
Above here — A good thought for today!
hope all is well with you
Thank you for listing the link.
