I’m so excited to announce that today my forthcoming book, The Edge of the Continent Volume Three - The Desert, is now available for pre-order!!! This book explores the richness of my experience in Joshua Tree, a place many view as barren, and exposea its unique offerings through personal narrative. In this collection, I invite readers into the often unseen magic of the desert, a place where silence and open space bring gifts of potent healing and ancient insight to those who are willing to sit still and listen.
