Imperfect Action
Today was a massive FIRST for me and the My Color Friends Series! I dropped off 8 MCF sample books at a national NZ early childhood education company.
I watched her face as she opened Graceful Grey, and she seemed pleasantly surprised. She had slight smile while she was looking at the pictures, trying to quickly read the text.
Still letting it sink in. It’s an amazing opportunity.

Learning about Social Media at Shaw Academy
Learning about Social Media at Shaw Academy
I am in the middle of an online certificate course on Social Media with Shaw Academy. I paid a fraction of the cost on the local GrabOne site (like Groupon) and I just jumped in. What I am learning is foundational for anyone marketing on Social Media.
Lesson 2 has stood out to me more than anything else, because it motivated me to actually look at my books as a real business and to set goals,…

We want to help our friends at Hope and Joy Home in Nepal rebuild their care and training centre after the tragic earthquakes this past April. First they lived in a giant tent with family and friends until it was safe to go back home. Their home was damaged, cracked and unsafe so they are now in temporary housing. But they have just received land to be able to build an earthquake safe home for the children and ministry.

What do I have in my hands to help? I have the My Color Friends Children’s Book Series! Using what’s in my hand, means bring Graceful Grey to New Zealand! I just completed the final draft, uploaded it on CreateSpace and have ordered a few dozen. Once they arrive, I hope to sell them to raise money for the kids and our friends at Hope and Joy Home. It’s not much, but it’s what I have. We hope that a few kids books will transform into a new children’s home in Nepal! We will need your help!
Elephants in Nepal!
They have Hope.
They have Joy.
Now they need a home!
There will be more to come about our NZ Special Edition of Graceful Grey, Asian Elephants at Work and Play and our fundraiser this month, but for now if you’d like to give to Hope and Joy Home, please contact us! And we will donate all the profit from buying a copy of Graceful Grey or a Book Bundle directly from us!
We are getting ready to launch our fundraiser and to invest in precious lives in Nepal!

Our Family's Transition from Nepal to New Zealand
Transition is tough. Our transition as a family of 5 moving from Nepal to New Zealand has been tough. But it has also been refreshing.
Two months on the family farm out in the wop wops (some NZ lingo for the middle of nowhere!) was fantastic. Reconnecting with Ben’s family– his mother celebrated her 81st birthday!, the kids rode ponies and motorbikes with ether cousins–was full on family fun.…

Rebuilding Nepal
I am so thankful for everyone who has given to our Sheltering Nepal rebuilding fund! #HopeinHumanity
$1,000 has been raised which equals about 20 shelters built! Each shelter can hold up to 5 families, that means at least 100 people have been helped through this giving!
I know many families are still suffering without shelter or food, but I am HOPEFUL that international neighbors and friends of…

Help Build Shelters in Nepal Before the Monsoon Comes!
Let me begin by saying the BIGGEST THANKS to everyone who had read our stories, prayed for Nepal and has given so far! We are only able to move forward with YOU by our side!
Our Nepali friends (the ones that we have been bragging about!) in Hetauda, Nepal are now mobilized to build metal or tin shelters. Imagine a big piece of sheet metal wrapping around a frame to protect families from the…

Following the Earthquakes in Nepal
Following the Earthquakes in Nepal
After Yesterday’s Aftershock, May 13, 2015
Nepal is on always our hearts. We eagerly open Facebook to see how our friends are doing– are they still sleeping outside in tents? Are they still afraid? I decided the best way I could be of any help to Nepal is to try to encourage our friends there. I have meager messages to send. It’s not enough. But I want to give something.
All 400 of our…

The Earthquake in Nepal
My Thoughts on the Earthquake in Nepal
We left Kathmandu approximately 2 weeks ago. Exhausted and emotionally drained already, we saw the tragic earthquake in Nepal while watching the evening news.
Nepal News here: eKantipur
I wasn’t shocked. This earthquake has been expected and warned. It was my biggest fear while living in Nepal for the past 5 years. We had been warned of an earthquake with 9 magnitude that would have flattened…

Loud pumping clubbing music woke us up today–because today is a day to celebrate in Nepal…it’s Holi, or the festival of colors! And I mean colors. Powder colors of the rainbow thrown onto anyone and everyone. And there must be dancing somewhere because there is heart pumping music.
For Hindus Holi celebrates the victory of Krishna, a Hindu god, over evil demons. It’s unclear where the colors come from, but it’s a celebration nonetheless. We may not celebrate the same way as our Nepali friends, but victorious good over evil should be celebrated!
Fun for the locals!
My Brother!

Happy Holi! Good Always Wins!
Happy Holi! Loud pumping clubbing music woke us up today--because today is a day to celebrate in Nepal...it's Holi, or the festival of colors!
Surprised
When you have a shop and some one comes in to browse and walks away with one of your books it is ‘more natural’ (if I may)…but the world wide web has blew apart the walls of that shop and anyone, anywhere–and I mean people who speak French and live in Africa–can buy my little book with one click.
It amazes me.
So thank you dear citizens of the world
for buying Graceful Grey, Asian Elephants at…

Inevitable Change
Change is coming, quite quickly in fact, and I want progress to follow.
On April 12, 2015 we will nation hop (as we do). We will close the Nepal chapter and open another chapter in New Zealand. We have been blessed to live in Nepal for almost 5 years. It is the only home my children know. But our work is done, for now. This isn’t an easy change, but it is a welcome one.

The Number 1 Reason I Shouldn't be Famous
1. I suck at being popular.
Right now I am freaking out that I have sold 8 books in the last two weeks! I know that does not make me wildly popular, but it does break any previous book sale records I have had over the past two years!
I would rather hide behind anyone or anything then get public acknowledgment! Ever. I can teach in front of hundreds, but I’d rather exit out the back then face an…
