Garden of Hearts
What does it mean to stop merely existing, and to begin truly living? For readers who have ever felt stuck, lost, or “past their moment,” Garden of Hearts offers a vision of hope. To living on purpose and finding joy in all circumstances. Your story is not over.
A Note from the Author
Alright, here’s the tea. There are only 120 copies of Garden of Hearts left in print — and once they’re gone, that’s it. Done. Why? Because Amazon screwed me over. Yep, they flagged my cover for a “copyright issue,” years after it had been for sale on their platform, even though I literally bought the license from Adobe, and Adobe even confirmed it. I tried swapping it for a photo I personally took — still no luck. Apparently, logic isn’t their strong suit. So for now, these 120 copies are the last of their kind.
Each book comes signed by me on the inside cover. These remaining copies are the last of the originals — and each one has been personally signed by me with a message straight from my heart.
If you want one of these rare copies, grab it while you can. And don’t worry — a digital download version will be dropping soon right here on the site, because this story (and this author) refuses to be silenced.
Growth, Change, and Seeing the World Differently
When I wrote Garden of Hearts, I was sitting in the middle of a mess — one I had made myself. Life felt loud, chaotic, and completely upside down. I didn’t want advice, opinions, or outside noise. I wanted silence. I wanted peace. I wanted to hide in my own little bubble and pretend the world couldn’t touch me. So I shut it all out. The news, the drama, the headlines. And for a while, that silence felt like bliss. I write about that toward the end of the book. I have completely changed my opinion on that.
Eventually, quiet can turn into avoidance. Over time, I realized that tuning everything out might keep you comfortable, but it also keeps you blind. These days, I stay informed. I watch, I listen, and I pay attention even when it’s uncomfortable, because pretending the world isn’t burning doesn’t put out the fire. If we want things to change in our lives, our communities, or our world, we’ve got to know what’s happening first.
Garden of Hearts was born in that quiet chapter of survival and reflection. Today, I see that growth doesn’t always come from peace — sometimes it comes from facing the noise head-on. And that’s the kind of transformation I’ll always write about: messy, real, and unapologetically human. Today, I see the value in awareness. In using your voice, even when it shakes. Growth doesn’t always look graceful, but it’s real. And that’s what this story and this chapter of my life is all about.
Also, at that time I write about how the 2016 election was going on and I was not a supporter of Donald Trump, I did not like him at all (I was not a supporter of Hillary Clinton either, just making that very clear). I have since flipped on that. I now support Trump. No one's more American than that guy.
