Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

First, let me say - I didn’t set out to become a writer. I was too busy running — literally.

At fourteen, I was a competitive runner with my eyes on the finish line… until a friend (bless his clumsy soul) accidentally shattered my knee and my athletic dreams in one fell swoop. Overnight, I went from racing tracks to lying flat on my back, trapped beneath a fortress of blankets and a towering stack of Harlequin romances.

My dad took one look at those bodice-rippers scattered across my bed, said nothing, and disappeared — only to return moments later, drop a book onto my lap, and declare: “You need to broaden your reading horizons.” The book was Iceberg by Clive Cussler. And just like that, my fate was sealed. Dirk Pitt became my new hero. Adventure, mystery, danger — all danced off the page and straight into my imagination. While my knee healed, a new dream took shape: I wanted to whisk readers away on thrilling journeys of their own.

So here I am: a writer fueled by a twist of fate, a determined dad, and the legendary Clive Cussler. And while I may not be sprinting down tracks anymore, I’m still chasing stories — and loving every second of the race.​

It means the world to have you here with me. May my stories spark your imagination as wildly as they've sparked mine.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A useful and fun resource
    Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2021

    I bought this book because I wanted to read the individual stories of young people from different cultures. It was great fun reading a page or two about their lives and their country. The book description says it is for children but I found the information to be very interesting.
    The idea of learning about young peoples lives and their perceptions of their country would be a great exercise for middle and high school social studies classes. The stories in this book are made up by the author using a child’s perspective. The author did a good job but students would have to research the accuracy of the information and perhaps comment on that. What a great assignment! Buy this book.

    I really enjoyed this book and the message it conveyed. We live in times where there's so much division, based on race, gender and religion. The beautiful message in this book is simple, we re all human beings with the same basic wants and needs. The book teaches children about other countries around the world, a nice way for them to learn about history and about other cultures. Diversity is a beautiful thing. and we should embrace it not fear it. Excellent , excellent job author. Thank you so much for putting something positive out into the world. I highly recommend this book.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Around the World Proud
    Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2022
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This is book five in the author’s “I Am Proud” series, available as eBook, paperback, and hardcover. It consists of short biographies with national highlights of youths from a selection of 19 different countries or states of the USA. (Other books in the series deal with other geographic selections.) The objective is to illustrate commonalities despite different languages, customs, and so forth. The youths are fictitious, though inspired by real people. The selection of countries and states in the book are genuine: Aruba, Cape Verde, El Salvador, Guadeloupe, Japan, Kentucky (USA), Liechenstein, Macedonia, Micronesia/Polynesia/Melanesia, Portugal, Serbia, Sierra Leone, Spain, Swaziland, Tajikistan, Tuvalu, Venezuela, Western Sahara, Wyoming (USA). The book is organized alphabetically by location name. Each vignette reads like a letter to someone in the USA from a thoughtful, educated, and friendly youth along with colorful photos of national flags, native peoples, and activities in daily lives. The vignettes are well written and edited. My only complaint is that the first letter of the opening page of each vignette is separated from the rest of the greeting on the line below.

    When Rocky Balboa goes to "Russia" to train, that was actually in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. And the Prince of Lichtenstein hosts a party for citizens every year. These are just two of the fun facts you get to learn by reading this book.

    But more importantly it's so great to get to know about different countries in this way. Very touching and funny to hear children describe their country or city. I just wish there were more countries and letters.

    An easy, short, and refreshing read!

    These books help get kids acquainted with the peoples and places around the world. Serving to help unite and prevent racial prejudices, this book jumps around the world with a very brief fun new letter from a new guide who tells a little bit about what makes each new place unique. Nice idea for kids from ages 6 to 12 or so.

    In book five of the ‘I’m Proud of Who I Am, I Hope You Are Too’ series, we travel on to nineteen more countries in our world. Like before, there is a letter telling us something about his or her country with an illustration of their flag waving beside it.

    On the following page is a brightly and well designed illustration of the author of the letter. The illustration is made to look like a photograph.

    An interesting idea for a kids book series. It's creative and not too short. I like that it's meant to put an end to stereotypes. This is a good series to introduce kids to different cultures and ideas from around the world. It teaches them not to look at others as strange, but as a people just like themselves.
