Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, after 20 years of working for an Australian State Government Schools Teaching Service, author Kevin Munro suffered a severe bipolar nervous breakdown. To keep up his literary skills, he began to write. In Netted Rainbows, Munro “documents” his illness through poems he wrote between 2005 and 2009 in Sydney, Australia. His record is filled with the “pain” of bipolar disorder, complete with the mania and depression he suffered and overcame. He challenges readers to identify the different stages of his illness through reading his works, and believes they could come away being a “lay” professional.
Download or read book The Sky Is Smiling written by Kevin Munro and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2015-04 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was released from an in-patient mental health ward in early March 2006. A trophy pictured in the preface of this book displays the date July 23, 2006, as the initial USA competition poetry award. That date marks the deadline of the period required for a poem to be created, entered, and judged. All that was left for application after my 20 years of post grad training, was creative writing. My hidden hope was to offer in a real way, an apology via deed to all those who encountered me when I was unwell. There is something strange regarding that period’s legal progress, since society so easily ignores this as “dealing with madness.” My elderly mother watched as my life appeared to unravel, but always offered support. In 2009, as she lay upon her deathbed in hospital, she held the first volume for which she was my sounding board. She smiled and said, “Well, at least you have a little hope appearing now.” These works you hold are the collated works of this period of hurtful outpour, and are continuous from early 2006 until late 2014.

Download or read book The Chronicles of a Stink Chicken written by Kevin Munro and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Stink” in Australian slang means a “fight” or something or someone that is not welcome. The Chronicles of a Stink Chicken: Episodes Second Edition features eight short stories and poetry describing the madness and wildness of thoughts and actions resultant from use of illicit drugs. It challenges unsuspecting readers with insets of respected philosophic pretext that asks real questions regarding health authority involvement with ranges of customers in the community, as social changes recreate the society they are created from. It is disarmingly presented within the same context of wild humours and contains spun encounters with insanity. The stories are about some of the author’s school friends who are mainly deceased due to substance abuse. The book also includes health and legal issues, financial truths, and the social negativities that come with using drugs. Humour is used to show how easily a user’s mind may be led into absurd beliefs. Author Kevin Munro says his short stories cover a wide period of his life that are re-weaved and spun. “Therefore, the Stink Chicken is probably myself, however in a somewhat creative and remodeled world. You would be surprised how many elements and events in these absurd stories verging upon the surreal are actually true.”
Download or read book Conversations with a Black Cockatoo written by Kevin Munro and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversations with a Black Cockatoo: The Poems of 2009-2013 is the final book in a trilogy written over the years when the author's mother entered the final phase of her life. It includes her illness, death, and the grieving of a son for a much-loved parent. Author Kevin Munro then uprooted his life and relocated to the Shoalhaven Region on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. All of this occurred as he recovered from a bipolar breakdown that ended his teaching career. The poetry in this book contains all these issues that evolved as the years unfolded. This trilogy is not only stirring literature, but is intended as an educational tool to help others. All three of his books contain interactive exercises that allow readers to examine the personal experience of someone with bipolar. These exercises are primarily aimed at tertiary education students training for involvement with mental health. The exercises are rich in group discussion potential and for individual educational needs and settings. Kevin Munro lives two hours south of Sydney, Australia, and holds a master's in education from the University of Western Sydney. His first book in the trilogy was a collection of poetry titled Netted Rainbows. His second book was a collection of short stories, The Chronicles of a Stink Chicken: Episodes. He wrote the books as he cared for his dying mother and in the grieving period following her death. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/KevinMunro

After winter floods destroy the canals, the farming clans of Serpentgate fear that their last days have come--the time of desperation and division spoken of in the Prophecy of the Rainbow Knife. Mysterious deaths, accusations of witchcraft, and a clash between rain priests and the priestesses of the mother goddess have set parents against children, men against women, clan against clan. To prevent this calamity, Waterstrider, one of the Watermasters who long ago built the canals, is called home out of exile. Waterstrider and his allies must survive a web of intrigue to restore the vast canal system and preserve their way of life.
