disabilties for over 30 years.I live in California and have had the privledge of

advocating for people who have mental illness for many years. I facilitate spiritual

retreats using music, dance, art, and sharing.My mother is 96 and going strong.I

tend to try things that I have never done before so my life is really an adventure. For

me it is all about sharing the love of Jesus, even though I am very human and

make mistakes. I try and have respect for everyone I meet because I see them as

beloved sisters and brothers of God.I have much to learn about people and

growing in my faith, however I think I have learned some things that I share in Joyful

Surrender.

 I have written as a hobby for 20 years I have  a book published called Joyful

Surrender. It tells of how I went from feeling I had no purpose and being sexually

abused to a very joyful life ,and decided to take  vows to help me stay focused on

my commitment to follow God. It tells of the steps that helped me make the vows. It

starts with being a seeker,  follower ,then sister/brother of Jesus. The reviews from

people who have read it have been very good. One woman was almost crying and

said everyone should read this book.I am very excited about it. I had a wonderful

review from www.womensselfesteem.com,.. You can see the interview and review

from womens self esteem on my reviews link. You can order Joyfull Surrender from

this website or you can order it from  www.amazon.com. It is available to order at

any Christian book store also.Thank you for considering reading my book. I have

an agent who is representing me with a book called Praying Daily With Jesus. The

publisher is Standard Publishing, which is a very good Christian publisher. I have

two childrens books that I am hoping to get published.

I have a book called Living With Hope and Courage in

which I am looking for a publisher.

.  I am currently working on a manuscript called He Hears Our Cry.I have about nine

other manuscriipts. One is called Finding Wisdom, which is a book of how I have

learned wisdom from people who have severe mental illness. I provide true stories

of how they have shown me spiritual wisdom. I also have a passage from scriptrue

for each story and a prayer. One publisher is interested when it is

completed.Two publishers have offered me a contract, but it would cost more

money than I have.Check out my poems and articles on authorsden! .  Thank you 

for reading about me and my book. I have much I would love to share .

My hope is that Joyful Surrender will help you with your own spiritual path.

Please check out my poems and see what

you think. I try to have some message of hope of some kind in them.I am looking

for a traditional publisher. I know that is a huge challenge, but I tend to be

persistant and patient at the same time. I also try and be very positive.If you are a

publisher or agent feel free to contact me if you have questions. If you know of

anyone who might be interested in my poetry or would like information about my

manuscripts please let me know. I have heard that I am easy to work with and I do

make all my deadlines. You can contact me on my new website, which is
