Father’s Day is coming! How about some books to celebrate dads?
Many of the characters in my books are or were street kids and/or foster kids and they tend to have abusive or absent fathers. So I thought I would highlight a couple of them who had good relationships with their dads. I have also pulled together a sampling of other books showcasing good father/child relationships. I hope you find something here that you like!

If you have been following my blog for long, you probably know that I am an advocate for supporting those with mental health issues in all aspects of their lives. As far as we have come in our understanding of mental illness, it is still stigmatized and our loved ones with mental health issues are still marginalized. You don’t have to look far to find evidence of injustices being done to these important members of our community. Statistically, you are more likely to suffer a mental illness during your lifetime than to require corrective lenses.

May is Celiac Disease Awareness month. You may have heard of Celiac Disease and not know what it means. It has also been called Celiac Sprue and a couple of other names. While those with Celiac Disease react to the glutens (proteins) in grains, it is not an allergy like a peanut allergy.
One of the things that I have had people ask me is which is worse, allergies or intolerance (Celiac Disease is an intolerance to glutens.) But it is very individual. Either one can be mild or severe. And with an intolerance like Celiac Disease, you may not realize that you have it, may not have any recognizable symptoms, but it can still cause damage that can result in serious illness such as colon cancer or the inability to absorb nutrients.

What a great idea! I know that I was interested in writing from a very early age. I have little construction paper books that I stapled together and scribbled in before I could even read or write. I have a number of stories and little books that I wrote while I was still in elementary school, and I wrote my first novel-length book when I was twelve.
