Zen Hippie Series

 YAY!! The Zen Hippie Series is complete...

It offers a lighthearted, slightly irreverent, look at Zen. What if Buddha was a Zen hippie? What would mindfulness look like through the lens of a flower child in the real world?

COFFEE STAINS AND DRAGONFLIES: Buddhi isn’t your typical spiritual guide. Named “Buddha” by his free-spirited, hippie parents, he tweaked the name to something that felt a little more down-to-earth. After trading his Ferrari for a beat-up ‘68 VW bus and swapping the chaos of Wall Street for a quiet lotus pond, he’s searching for enlightenment.

PEACE, LOVE, AND ZEN VIBES. Buddhi, the quirky, coffee-fueled hippie, is blogging his way to mindfulness, one messy moment at a time. With wisdom as rich as his bad coffee and a sense of humor as irreverent as his beat-up ’68 VW bus, Buddhi shares his musings on life, love, and the art of finding Zen in the chaos.

POND-SIDE PHILOSOPHIES. Buddhi just wanted to drink coffee and write his book. But when you live by a pond with two highly opinionated philosophers—one a shimmering dragonfly sharing his wisdom, the other a contemplative and slightly grumpy frog who each insist that their way to Zen is the right way—nothing is ever that simple.

It wasn't supposed to happen. Not again. But it did. Kilauea erupted on February 22, 1969. It's now February 22, 2019, fifty years later.

Sara and Jason are newlyweds, on their honeymoon in Hawaii. While exploring the lava tubes at Kaumana Caves, they find two stray puppies, scared by the tremors preceding a volcanic eruption, and attempt to rescue them.

Sara and Jason don't know it yet, but they're about to embark on a time travel adventure into a parallel reality through a rip in time. Separated by fifty years and an erupting volcano, can they find each other again?

And what does Ben, the owner of the Kairos Coffee Shop, have to do with all of this?

Pond-Side Philosopies

Two philosophies, one pond—because there’s more than one way to find your Zen.

Buddhi just wanted to drink coffee and write his book. But when you live by a pond with two highly opinionated philosophers—one a shimmering dragonfly sharing his wisdom, the other a contemplative and slightly grumpy frog—nothing is ever that simple.

Miles, the ever-gliding dragonfly, believes in movement, transformation, and going wherever the wind takes him. Harold, the rock-sitting, world-observing frog, believes in patience, stillness, and the occasional well-timed leap.

Both of them are absolutely certain their way is the right way. Both insist Buddhi should be taking notes. Both want to write their own book to share their philosophies.

As Buddhi tries (and fails) to focus on his own work, he finds himself caught in the middle of a hilarious, deeply philosophical, and occasionally exasperating battle between two very different perspectives on life.

Will they ever agree on anything? Will Buddhi ever get a moment of peace? Will Miles concede that rock sitting might have its moments? Will Harold finally accept that shimmering might have some value? (Spoiler: Probably not.)

POND-SIDE PHILOSOPHIES: DRAGONFLY WISDOM AND FROG ZEN is a lighthearted, thoughtful, and occasionally chaotic exploration of life, mindfulness, and the timeless battle between stillness and movement, contemplation and change, frogs and dragonflies.

And, yes, coffee will be spilled.

Available at Amazon... $4.99.

Peace, Love, and Zen Vibes

Buddhi, the quirky, coffee-fueled hippie, is blogging his way to mindfulness, one messy moment at a time. With wisdom as rich as his bad coffee and a sense of humor as irreverent as his beat-up ’68 VW bus, he shares his musings on life, love, and the art of finding Zen in the chaos.

From sitting through life’s storms to finding meaning in dragonfly wings, Buddhi’s posts are full of the everyday enlightenment you didn’t know you needed. Whether he’s reflecting on the universe over a sunflower’s bloom or tackling the mystery of why coffee tastes better by a lotus pond, his unique take on mindfulness will make you laugh, think, and maybe even breathe a little deeper.

A delightful companion to COFFEE STAINS AND DRAGONFLIES, this collection of blog posts is perfect for anyone searching for peace, purpose, or just a good laugh.

Grab your coffee—cracked mug optional—and join Buddhi on his journey of finding Zen vibes in the messy, beautiful adventure of life.

Available at Amazon... $4.99.

What if the love of your life slipped through your fingers... again and again?

Paige’s life is at a crossroads. Stuck in a soul-draining job and nursing a broken heart, the last thing she expects is to find hope in the form of a stray dog. But when she rescues a sweet little Chihuahua named Riley, something magical begins to happen.

When dreams about a man she’s never met—but feels she’s known forever—start weaving into her waking life, she begins to wonder if they’re more than just dreams. Drawn to a charming café with an otherworldly feel, Paige discovers that some connections transcend time and space.

Tom has always felt there was someone missing from his life. His dreams of a woman with eyes that seem to hold his very soul have him searching for answers. But as his life takes unexpected turns, he begins to wonder if the universe has other plans.

With the help of Riley, who might be a guardian angel in disguise, Paige and Tom’s paths are destined to cross. But fate has a way of throwing obstacles in the way, and time is running out for these two souls to reunite.

Will Paige and Tom find each other in this lifetime, or will their love remain lost in the echoes of past lives?

Perfect for fans of heartfelt love stories with a touch of magic, FINDING FOREVER is a tale of soulmates, second chances, and a little dog whose devotion transcends lifetimes.

Buddhi's Blog

 Oops. One of my characters has escaped from the pages of his book and started a blog... Peace, Love, and Zen Vibes.

Coffee Stains and Dragonflies

What if Buddha was a Zen hippie?

Buddhi isn’t your typical spiritual guide. Named “Buddha” by his free-spirited, hippie parents, he tweaked the name to something that felt a little more down-to-earth. After trading his Ferrari for a beat-up 1968 VW bus and swapping the chaos of Wall Street for a quiet lotus pond, he’s searching for enlightenment.

With a dragonfly named Miles as his muse, Buddhi has turned the pond into the epicenter of his journey toward mindfulness. Armed with a ukulele, truly terrible coffee, and an irreverent sense of humor, he blogs his way through life’s big questions and small absurdities.

As a revolving cast of quirky visitors show up at the pond, drawn to the unconventional wisdom on his blog, Peace, Love, and Zen Vibes, Buddhi begins to question whether mindfulness is really about stillness—or if it’s about dancing through the beautiful, messy chaos of life.

But the pond is just a stop on the journey, not the destination. As Buddhi wrestles with the messy beauty of life, he realizes that mindfulness isn’t about escaping the chaos—it’s about learning to groove with it, coffee stains and all.

Lighthearted, wise, and delightfully offbeat, Coffee Stains and Dragonflies invites you to embrace the messiness of life, one mindful moment at a time.

Sneak Peek

A few days ago, I was playing with a "what if" scenario and this totally beautiful idea popped into my mind. What if Buddha was a Zen hippie? I immersed myself in writing, the words are flowing, and the book will be finished soon. I love when this happens!

I've got a cover designer working on the cover, so I'll share soon...
