Feedback on "Heart Appreciation: Stories of Gratitude" is always appreciated!

 

Raleigh, North Carolina - March 29, 2022 - It always brightens my day when I hear from those who read my book. Usually, one or two stories truly resonate with them. Thank you for the cherished feedback. My book, Heart Appreciation: Stories of Gratitude, can be found on Amazon Books now.

I found out early in life that good people bring you happiness while not-so-good people teach you lessons, but this book focuses on the great ones who give you memories.

In this collection of personal and lyrical short stories, you will learn how a nine-year-old girl, a pro football legend, a Fortune 500 CEO, a feisty old man, a country boy, a Puerto Rican logistics manager, a new hire from Santa Barbara, a college buddy, and a high school gym teacher taught me about dignity, compassion, loyalty, charisma, humility, selflessness, and so much more.

These non-fiction reflections combine elements of humor, poetry, essay, and memoir and serve as reminders that we are truly a result of what we learn from others. I extend my deepest appreciation and gratitude to everyone mentioned in this book as well as to those who will be honored in subsequent compilations. 💖💖💖

The OTHER half of the Nature Series by TRUNKS ART!

 

Raleigh, North Carolina - December 16, 2021 - "Nature Series" (6 of 12) - I think most artists would agree that intention can best be understood when looking at more than just one composition from a particular series.  Now that I put you to sleep with what probably came off as scathing pretentiousness, here are 6 of the 12 art pieces from my recently completed Nature Series.  Oh and I'm not wearing a fashionable ascot as I type this! 💖💖💖
