- About Me:
- I'm the author of the award-winning visionary fantasy novel, "The MoonQuest," and a book of tools, tips and inspiration for writers, "The Voice of the Muse: Answering the Call to Write," as well as creator of the 2-CD set of guided meditations for writers, "The Voice of the Muse Companion." I'm also a creativity coach and spiritual mentor dedicated to help people awaken and activate their passion, power and potential.
Both my books are very much in alignment with that work.
"The MoonQuest" takes place in a mythical time and place where storytelling has been banned and storytellers banished. As a story of empowerment and the return of vision and creativity to a silenced land, it's also a call for everyone to be free to to live and tell their stories.
"The Voice of the Muse," a book of writing inspiration and practice for novice and experienced writers alike, is a tool to reawaken and revitalize story and creativity. This book grew out of the writing classes, workshops and coaching sessions I have been offering for more than 15 years.
I love this line from the musical "Yentl": "With all there is, why settle for just a piece of sky?" All the work I do is about helping people move beyond that single piece of sky to touch the infinite of their true nature and the true nature of the infinite divinity.

NPR's All Thing's Considered
Director Jason Reitman Finds His Feet 'Up In The Air'
Director Jason Reitman may be young, but he comes from Hollywood stock — his dad is Ghostbusters creator Ivan Reitman — and he has already directed two well-received feature films, Juno and Thank You For Smoking. His latest is Up in the Air, starring George Clooney. Reitman says it's his first really mature work as a moviemaker.Tiger Woods Withdraws From Tournament
Tiger Woods withdrew Monday from his own golf tournament following injuries he sustained in a car crash near his home in Florida. Rumors have swirled about the crash and Woods' personal life since Friday's incident. In a statement, golf's No. 1 player said the crash was his fault, but did not elaborate.Examining Obama's Afghan Speech
President Obama outlines his strategy for Afghanistan at a speech at West Point on Tuesday. Obama will likely face a skeptical audience; support for the war is in decline. Ambassador Wendy Sherman, special adviser to President Clinton, and Michael Gerson, chief speechwriter to President George W. Bush, offer their insight.In Seattle, Search Continues For Shooting Suspect
Police are searching a Seattle neighborhood Monday for the suspect in the shooting deaths of four police officers from a Tacoma, Wash., suburb. Earlier, a SWAT team stormed a house in the area where Maurice Clemmons was thought to be hiding, but he had already escaped.U.S. Warns Lenders On Mortgage Foreclosures
The Obama administration said Monday it is stepping up pressure on the banking industry to prevent foreclosures. The Treasury Department says it could levy fines on companies that aren't doing enough. The move is an attempt to push the banks to do a better job of implementing the administration's plan to lower payments for homeowners who are in trouble.Listeners Recall First Time On The Internet
In the occasional series to mark the 40th anniversary of the Internet, listeners share stories about their first e-mail, Web page and instant message. One listener recalls her first foray into a chat room, another remembers her seventh grade computer class, and a third relives connecting to the Internet from Papua New Guinea.Iran Defies West With Plans For New Nuclear Sites
Iran says its decision to build 10 more uranium-enrichment plants is a direct response to an IAEA resolution criticizing Iran for secret nuclear activities. Iran may not have the capacity to carry out the plan, but its announcement has prompted talk of new sanctions.Investors Skittish Amid Dubai Debt Crisis
Troubles in the emirate of Dubai are making investors nervous around the world. A government-run financial conglomerate wants a time-out on debt payments, stirring fears of another bubble tied to risky bets on real estate. Dubai has invested in huge luxury projects at home and abroad.Senate Weighs Health Care Overhaul
The Senate began debate Monday on the Democrats' plan to overhaul the nation's health care system. The measure faces an uphill battle, however, because of a dispute over abortion coverage and a government-run insurance option.Bloomberg News Reporter Remembered
Bloomberg News reporter Mark Pittman died last week at age 52. Although he was not well-known outside Bloomberg, Pittman was a legend inside it. His reporting on credit default swaps suggested the likelihood of a market collapse. Pittman also questioned the financial viability of the pre-crash mortgage culture.Forums

I will connect with you on www.gaia.com. I have found, as I'm sure you have too, that you can't give too much energy to too many sites. There has to be a balance in life. That's why I'm heading off for a swim with our daughters in a few minutes. All the best, my friend. By the way, I'm really impressed with all that you have created. Well done! JohnYes, we do have more in common. The social network I spend most of my time is www.gaia.com.
Looking forward to connecting more in the times to come.
Blessings,
