Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adventures of Amazing Amos is a short collection of children's stories loosely based on the antics of a spirited and loveable Great Dane once owned by the author. Her dog was often the center of attention and not necessarily for good reasons. But he was always loved despite his misgivings. In this collection, what makes Amos so amazing is that he receives grace no matter what he does. Amazing Amos is adopted by a family who loves and cares for him very much. The family tries to train him and curb his appetite for mischievous and silly antics. After arriving at his new home, Amos endlessly finds new ways to get in trouble. The family sends Amos to obedience school, the circus, and the Army desperately hoping the training he receives will help him settle down and behave. But no matter where he goes, Amos's playfulness takes over, and he starts a commotion. Whenever Amos gets in trouble, a golden halo appears over his head as if asking for grace, and like the author's dog, he is always forgiven. Amos is eventually introduced to Mandy, another Great Dane. Amos is enthralled with her, while Mandy lovingly puts up with him. Over time, Mandy instills a sense of peace and calm to everyone's delight. The book describes, in a way relatable to children, the role forgiveness plays in our lives. Through the wonderful grace God extends to each of us every day and through Jesus Christ, we are all forgiven.

She told me to write when I am doing my big business. “Five to eight minutes max!” she said. “I don’t want you to develop piles!” And so my writing in the bathroom began. My entries started with the boring old stuff…then Mum got this new job as a writer and, following her around, I got to do fun stuff, like ogle at deformed frogs, see into the future with a fortune-telling parrot and wow at a life-sized F1 car made of chocolate! That’s how I got more interesting things to write about. Plus, I had to deal with an EVIL bully who was tormenting me at school…thank goodness for my best friends, Alvin and Anthony, we rallied against the bully and got through the year with lots of adventures and good fun!

Making time, however, can be magick. In 2038, in the SOLARPUNK futuristic city of Chongqing, a dangerous story gets told that threatens our entire multiverse. The world's spiciest ice cream, a trip to Chongqing's rural countryside, & a strange collection of curious belongings begin this unforgettable tale that mixes Solar Punk science fiction and high fantasy for a thrilling modern fairytale about a boy who risks his soul to chase a 9-tail fox into the dreamlands for the adventure of a lifetime and the chance to save his family.

For other readers, the element that snags and pulls the imagination into this story might be one of a hundred others. That's kind of this book's magic…" - @Donasbooks "The end left me gasping for the next installment," - Richard Devall, Vine Voice "Amos the Amazing is a bedazzling and delightful adventure through a world of wonderment and imagination.
