The Girl Who Didn’t

January 27, 2024 By

100% of every sale will be donated to War Child via Work for Good.

This is a poem that does not rhyme, because life-changing moments do not rhyme, or fit perfectly in order. Each line of the 22-line poem, conveys a multitude of lived experiences, and is stacked like the title for emphasis. To sit with the title (without even opening the book), and the question it prompts, would be more than enough – to jump start a shift in perception about the pathways of life, where we intersect at heart and meet for a virtual cup of tea. The stories we share (and those we don’t) tells other people how we wish to be remembered, sincerely. In chaotic times, we are shaken but we survive. $0.99 on Kindle.

Tackle Life Head On: A Playbook on Defeating Life’s Obstacles

December 1, 2021 By

“I’m one of the ninety-percent who, for a brief time, got to live like the one percent.”

Ask a group of little kids what their dream job is and most will tell you they want to be a professional athlete. Their chances of actually becoming one, however, are less than one percent. Of those who do make it, the vast majority won’t last for more than three years.

Jeff Ogden was one of those rare few, overcoming a series of obstacles to have a five-year career with the Dallas Cowboys, Miami Dolphins, and Baltimore Ravens. Growing up in the small town of Snohomish, in Washington State, Jeff appeared to be the last person who would play in the NFL, due in large part to the physical challenges he faced from birth. It was through a lot of hard work, inner reflection, faith, and the love of family that he entered the exclusive world of professional sports and played alongside some of the best athletes in the world.

This book is a mix of anecdotes from his life—many uplifting and funny, others heartbreaking—and exercises designed to help the reader to identify and overcome their own challenges. Told with humor, humility, and gratitude, Jeff’s story is a testament to what the ordinary person can do when they are willing to do the work. More importantly, it is a playbook for anyone who thinks their goals are unattainable or their challenges insurmountable. $0.99 on Kindle.

Free: Being Authentic

March 8, 2021 By

Our existence is fragile. I learned that in many intricate ways, so I do not take today for granted. I do not know what tomorrow will bring. I do not even know if tomorrow will come.

On the eve of Thanksgiving 2016, I received the diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer. Next to dying, I fear the spread of cancer to my brain and losing my ability to think, speak, or write. This loss would be devastating to me.

The fragility of our life made me want to be authentic. Therefore, I am writing this memoir to be authentic—we become our true selves when we author who we are.

I am afraid of being forgotten. Death does frighten me. But more than dying, I am scared of having no one remember me or, even worse, of being recognized differently from who I was. At the same time, I have never thought that I was entitled to ask others not to forget me. But, not to be forgotten is precisely what I yearn for.

While I am writing for the other, I am simultaneously writing for myself. I am one of the readers and will test the subject as it gets written. My criteria are stricter. I want to say, “This is my narrative.”

I need to be able to say, “This is my narrative.” Free on Kindle.
