Itinerary: 21 Days in China
Thanks so much for your patience while I’ve taken a break from my blog to complete work on my just-published books (more info on them below)!
I’ll resume posting on Sunday, July 26 with the first in a series from my recent 21-day trip to China.
The China trip begins with a long weekend in booming Shanghai, continues for 12 days along the Yangtze River and wraps up in Xi’an (home of the ‘Terra Cotta Warriors‘), and Beijing.
21 Days In China is a chance to look beyond current headlines for firsthand insight into the culture, history, cuisine, and faces of today’s China!
+++++ JUST PUBLISHED ON AMAZON +++++
Two of my books previously first released only as digital editions are now available for the first time in paperback on Amazon!
LIFELINES: AN AMERICAN DREAM (2014). My second book and first novel is the story of two families who abandon their pasts to pursue the American dream, and whose lives intersect in the melting pot of the industrial Midwest.
This is a collection of intimate snapshots that brings to life a history fast fading from collective memory. Rich in historical detail, it is set against the backdrop of America’s emergence as a world power in the twentieth century, and the rise and fall of organized labor. Find it in Paperback or for Kindle and other e-readers here on Amazon.
LAGUNA TALES (2011). My first book, a collection of short stories, draws on my own experiences to capture the lifestyle of the expat community in and around a mountain village in Mexico.
Six Americans from different walks of life arrive at personal crossroads that separately lead them to begin new lives along the shores of Mexico’s Lake Chapala. Find it in Paperback or for Kindle and other e-readers here on Amazon.
EMBRACING THE FOG (2015). I’ve partnered with three American writers from the Lake Chapala area on this new short story collection, which includes five previously-unpublished pieces.
These eighteen short stories are studies characters at life’s crossroads in settings that span four continents and more than a century. They run a gamut of styles from sobering to whimsical, and from stark realism to the fanciful. Find it in Paperback or for Kindle and other e-readers here on Amazon.
MEXICO: SUNLIGHT & SHADOWS (2015). I’m honored by the invitation to contribute one of my pieces to this just-published collection of short stories and essays by some of the most widely read English language writers in Mexico.
This anthology captures the work of twenty-two published authors who write and live in Mexico full time, and who share a view of life there as seen through their eyes. Find it for Kindle and other e-readers ONLY here on Amazon.
THE MIRASOL REDEMPTION (coming soon). Watch for the August, 2015 release of my second novel, in digital and paperback editions on Amazon.
Enjoy the read!
