Hi Chuck,

Thanks for your warm welcome and providing a little insight into "who you are". WOW!! given the number of books you've written do you ever sleep? I'm finding it difficult just promoting my debut novel and yearning to find time to begin writing again.

I love Sci-Fi and am a "Trekkie" fan from way back. Have seen every episode (numerous times) of Star Trek and totally believe one day we'll  say "beam me up Scottie" and be able to transport anywhere. We are pure energy, our physical vessel is just a means to experience human life. There are infinitive galaxies out there and it's unrealistic to think we are the only planet in this vastness embracing "life". I have experienced "astro travel", encompassed dreams in parallel dimensions and visions of the past and future. The essence of our soul knows no bounds, it can transcend into the infinity of space. Human existence is the hard part of the journey. Thankfully there is something else awaiting us.

I naively thought completing my novel July last year was the end of the journey and it was from the writing point of view. Then I found myself entering another stage, creating the book cover artwork (through Christopher Brunton), the publishing, printing process, launching the novel and finding new and different ways to promote my work.  The challenges were immense and certainly forced me out of my comfort zone. In fact the writing part was easy compared to this!! Expressing through the written word is a personal experience which embraces a unique isolation, the world of imagination, forming the story, allowing the characters to manifest and the chapters to unfold. I’ve learned so much along the way and feel so blessed to have shared with so many people. Now married to a wonderful man and sharing special relationships with my children, family and friends my life is fulfilled in many ways.

Yes, Chuck I would like to become friends with you. My email address is bp0211@optusnet.com.au. I look forward to sharing.

Warm Wishes
