About the Book
Have you ever reached a point in your life where you just wanted to take off? Have you ever wanted to simply take off from your life and leave everything behind? You know…the moment when you say to yourself, “That’s it! I’m done! I’m outta here and I’m going to go live my own life for once!” Some will call you selfish… Some will call you crazy and reckless… Some will say that you are going through menopause or a mid-life crisis or whatever… and many will throw so much negativity your way that the urge will get even stronger. We go where the winds of Life take us... changes in course are inevitable... Perhaps do not fight that which takes us with Love to our Destiny.
About the Author
Upon my return from a solo sailing adventure of almost two thousand miles across open ocean, I felt compelled to share the story of self transformation. I single-handed a small sailboat from Wilmington, North Carolina to the tiny island of Bermuda and back. My book, “Path of Three Hundred” is the story told in the third person.
I felt compelled to write the book because of the transformation of self while being at sea through the physical challenges I faced while alone. There is no place to “pull over” out there. There is no one to take the helm so that I could rest when tired or hungry while the sea seemingly rages before me. As in all of our lives, we face challenges which will create fear from time to time. I firmly believe when we face those challenges with peace in our hearts, we can overcome anything.
I now live in the small town of Ukiah, California with my Shetland Sheepdog, Lucky. Lucky by the way, waited patiently for me while at sea...the reunion was spectacular.
I graduated with honors from Carnegie Mellon University with a Bachelor of Architecture and worked as an Architect for over 20 years ending in 2003 when I was fired from my last job as an Architect. That was my own doing as I was quite a different human back then...the sea transformed my way of being.
A documentary feature film, “Changing Course” aka: “Path of Three Hundred”, is in progress from the high definition footage I shot while at sea.
