NEW:

The FOURTH EDITION of the Earth Garden Building Book: Design and build your own house is being released on the 2nd of May, 2005. Order your autographed copy now!

New home for my highest-selling e-book.
   Anger and Anxiety: Be in charge of your emotions and control phobias outsells all my fiction books combined. It has now been released by Twilight Times Books, to join my popular short story collection Striking Back From Down Under.

Sleeper, Awake, the EPPIE-winning science fiction story, has been reissued by Double Dragon E-books, the most dynamic electronic book publisher around. They have several best-sellers. Please help me to add to their list by getting a copy of this book! :)

The LiFE Award: Literature For Environment has its 18th recipient. This is an official, authorized story from the TV series Bonanza.

There is now a place on the web where you can inspect unusually excellent books. They have strict selection criteria, but by some miracle I sneaked in :) This is http://www.bookswelove.net.

My work as an editor is now my main source of income. It brings in more than my psychological counseling practice. The reason is... my clients are enthusiastic enough about my work to send others along.

Editing Service

   Are you a writer? My freelance book editing service is one of the cheapest, and yet many highly competent, established authors have praised the quality of my work. (I can keep my fees down because of the low value of the Australian dollar.) Having edited everything from graduate texts to erotica, I am happy to take on any content, any genre, any style. Have a look at what I am offering.

   If you have trouble with the technical aspects of the craft of writing, you will find my interactive writing course to be good value.
