Thank you in advance,

I was raised by a single mother without many advantages.  I did however have an abundance of love, including being adopted by my Dad at 14.  I suffered a sports related injury at 11 years of age that left me permanently disabled.  Many surgeries later and a lot of compensation for my insecurities, I found myself writing in an effort to survive a sizable depression.  Fast forward many years and I wrote my first book, an autobiography (Saved with Honu) that is a culmination of those writings, and related story.  My editor says, I had to write it to heal myself.  I think he was right. 

I've written many poems, and stories.  I'm proud to present The Lonely Bench as the first under the buy one give on model.  I needed to found a business, because no current publisher would have a model that could support the one for one concept.  FeltIt InMyHeart Press was originally inspired by something that my Aunt (sister to my biological father) said.  I asked why she never left me?  Her response: “Always side with the one that did not get a vote”.  It's beautiful, eloquent, and simple isn't it?  What could society be, if we all subscribed to this thought?  That’s this business in a nut shell, it’s you and I siding with the one that did not get a vote.  The most valuable skill that those individuals can obtain is literacy.  

I was lucky because of love, and that my mother was a teacher.  I was inspired to grow and learn through education.  It’s time to pay that forward.  If you have ever been inspired by a teacher, you know the feeling.  Let’s give that feeling away for free!
 
Much love to you!
