Greetings! Hi! Jambo! Kia Ora! G’Day! Dag! Hola! Guten Tag!

The writing started with a plane crash. My first published book tells the imperfect love story of a former NATO F-15 pilot (later a test pilot) and the red-headed girl he took for an airplane ride. It’s about a promise.

Flight through Fire is available in paperback and e-book on amazon and other sellers.

Take a look at my “About” page to learn more and also to find out why I’m a climate activist. Every day I wake up and consider what I can do to make this planet better. It’s going to take all of us to save our world.

Get all the details HERE.

The 2nd book in The Skye Van Bloem Trilogy was published in paperback and eBook in February 2020. Holding is a climate dystopia, so get ready for a harrowing journey with Skye and her friends. And yes, there is romance and adventure and a bit of mild sex. The first book in the trilogy, Countdown, touches on biodiversity importance, a theme that permeates everything in my life.

The last book in the trilogy, Launch, was published on November 7, 2020. It’s about political revolution, and it’s an interesting coincidence that Nov 7 was also the day the US election was called for Joe Biden. There is a violence content warning for Launch, since it is a young adult book. Check out the video book trailer on YouTube.
