Book Title: One Loan Soul

Book Description: Don’t sell your soul to the Devil. Take out a loan instead!She may be deceased, but Darcie Rose visits Earth often. Substituting into the bodies of those who loan their soul to the Devil, she’s Satan’s top employee. But when her latest possession goes wrong, she’s trapped in the realm of the living, facing the ex-fiance who betrayed her and caused her death. Worse, that breaks one of Lucifer’s only two rules… and she’s involuntarily toeing the other. Not to mention that she accidentally resurrected a taxidermy fox amidst the undead chaos. Can Darcie escape her Hell-on-Earth and figure out who summoned her before Luci’s henchman arrives to drag her and her zombie fox back to Hell? Or will she have the Devil to pay?

What would you like readers to know about you?: Despite being incredibly pale, I love dark and twisted. I tend to base my writings on creative premises that twist something about the normal world into something interestingly unique, dangerous, magical, and darkly humorous. The stories I produce span YA to adult, though not steamy, and dystopian to romantic suspense/thriller to paranormal romance/contemporary fantasy/urban fantasy. More often than not, there’s death, mythology, and an anti-hero or villain protagonist, and even more frequently, an adorable furry (or scaly) sidekick or two, as well as fascinating if somewhat morbid facts (my PhD in Earth Science — volcanoes to be exact — and sisters in medicine have something to do with that. I love to learn and to share that knowledge.) My books raise questions of companionship, vengeance and forgiveness, morality, and survival of one versus many. Also… I love polka dots, hot chocolate, fairy lights, and foxes. My favorite book: Le Petit Prince. And I love meeting bookish friends online!

What would you like readers to know about you? My deepest fascination is with all aspects of inner life — and the areas I have focused on reflect that. I was a psychotherapist for 20 years, and now teach other therapists how to help their clients gain experiential access to their deepest places. Inner processes such as dreamwork and focusing (an experiential, body-based method for listening inside) can bring healing to deep places of trauma and/or unearth the authentic self. I am currently offering online courses, based on my dream book, to therapists who want to learn how to work with client dreams with skill and confidence. I also teach a certification program in focusing and am planning to migrate that two-year program to an online platform. My training has been extensive and lifelong. I have a PhD in Clinical Psychology with a focus on somatic approaches, and my dissertation focused on the development of a focusing-based treatment for PTSD nightmares. My Masters is from Pacifica Graduate Institute, where I was immersed in Jungian/depth psychology. And I have intensive training in focusing for work with complex trauma, and now certify others in this skill.

Book Title: Bending Toward Heaven: Poems After the Art of Vincent van Gogh

Book Description: We are surrounded by poetry on all sides,” Vincent van Gogh (1853-90) once wrote to his brother Theo. His art was a reflection of this belief. In these ekphrastic sonnets, the author reflects on themes Van Gogh returned to over and over again in his brief but intense journey from evangelist and pastor-in-training to painter of peasants, still lifes and growing things. As these poems reflect, Van Gogh’s poetic imagination was best expressed in blossoming orchards, starry nights, sheaves of wheat, final harvests, and in his signature sunflowers–a metaphor for his own life, lifting petals to the sky, bending toward heaven.

People tell me that I’m a charismatic speaker. It seems as if I was born talking. I enjoy addressing large and small groups on a wide range of subjects. Before focusing full time on spiritual matters, I taught self-help and leadership topics to individuals and groups. I worked one-to-one as a mentor to new managers, and I presented management concepts and skills to business leaders for many years. After nineteen years with a major corporation, I left my management position to pursue spiritual goals full time. Twenty-one years ago, I took a leap of faith to follow the calling of my heart and soul. And, I feel deeply blessed to be doing what I love.
