A new review of Gentle Spirits:
Gentle Spirits reads like the work of someone who does not simply observe the natural world but lives inside its rhythms. Allowing Samuel and Angelique to mature through encounters with animals, land, water, and migration gives the narrative a contemplative pulse that reaches beyond plot. The movement across geographies, from island coastlines to northern vineyards to western landscapes, invites readers into experience rather than description. That immersion makes the story feel less like a sequence of events and more like a journey toward understanding connection, memory, and continuity.

Tis a tough path for a writer to sell books – “What’s it about??” Oh readers, oh readers – take a chance – you won’t be sorry!

This process, this glorious process – the final edits of my novel coming in May. Five years now in the making and I find myself revisiting old friends as I check commas and spaces and the like. I even felt a tear leaking as a character I admired passed on.
Just let my heart bleed on the page.
Just a few green post notes to mark the pages, and soon my work will be done – ready to share.
Follow the Gentle Spirits – Samuel and Angelique, and Firestone and Marie through generations and a myriad of places in search of love, family and peace. An epic novel, coming in May 2023 from Legacy Book Press.
