Author of "A Theology for the Rest of Us." I have been an educator and administrator for 40 years--all of which contributed to the writing of this book which encouragers readers to come up with their own answers regarding spirituality. "A Theology for the Rest of Us," draws on a variety of religious traditions as well as science and literature to help people develop their own spirituality and the values with which they want to live their lives. At the end of the book, readers are asked to imagine they are being honored at a banquet. "What have been your achievements? When have you been the most proud? Do you have any regrets?" are just three of the questions that can provide people with a framework so they can live lives in keeping with their hopes and priorities.

I also love to help other writers, which is why I started Escape With a Writer in September 2018. Since then, I have featured hundreds of great authors.
