In 2009, in collaboration with my daughter, I wrote my first book, “Fast and Furious against ADHD: the Natural Way”. At the time, not a lot was known about the condition. As a child, I would have displayed the known symptoms of ADHD and my daughter of ADD. We had done a massive amount of research and, our ADHD books were a utopian desire to help people who may be in that diagnosed or potential diagnosed situation and didn’t want to take drugs.
After that, I wrote a book almost every 2 years until 2018 – 8 in total.
There is a saying that, “Everyone has a book inside them”; it just needs to be released.
Most people don’t write because they feel, they have nothing to say or that their writing style, grammatical expertise, etc are not good enough. That could have been a hindrance once upon a time but not anymore.
People’s lives are now filled with many diverse experiences. Foreign destination holidays as well as local destinations are the norm. Physical activities such as mountain climbing, trail blazing, sky diving, scuba diving, etc, etc, etc are also the norm. Each person’s experience will be different from anyone else’s.
Because it isn’t academic writing, write close to how you would speak – it’s your voice, no one else speaks and writes like you. Self-publishing is an option and is mostly free. On Kindle, for example, you get a Writer’s Page which you can use to promote your publication.
Blogging, to share these experiences is also now the norm as are platforms like YouTube, etc if you prefer making videos; YouTube is free.
With regard to grammar, again there are innumerable software that help with that. AI has also entered the field. With AI remember to ensure that you make adjustments to be in sync with who YOU are as you are not a machine, never mind how sophisticated it is advertised as being. Nothing replaces a person’s HEART.
In this section, I’ll share snippets of work from my various books. All have thought-provoking themes, many are humorous, some serious. In some, animals are the main characters and dialogue with other animals and/or humans.
This Page is to inspire you to think past your current conditioning about you as an author and show you, everyone has something to say that will be of interest to others.
We are one Earthly community, let’s share our experiences and enrich each other’s lives.
