Quality Crossroads. Released in January 2026 on Amazon in paperback. https://a.co/d/0h8hXaTW
You are a leader in a multinational organization facing critical quality decisions.
In Quality Crossroads, every decision you make shapes what happens next.
Some paths lead to success, while others lead to costly consequences.
There is no single right answer, only decisions and outcomes.
Choose wisely.
I grew up reading choose your own adventure and similar style books and still have them, I actually gave them to my kids to read. it put your imagination to the test, allowing you to live as different characters in different places, with you making the decisions.
I wanted to do the same, but from my experiences in the business world and quality, so I wrote this. I figured I’d have a challenge with it as it is a different writing style, but it just flowed out and I actually had a blast putting it together. There a large number of choices to make within the book. For those in the business world, and especially in quality, you will relate to the choices that cross your path.
The Great American Road Trip. Scheduled release June 2026 on Amazon in paperback & digital. Kinde/Digital availab le for Presale now: https://a.co/d/02hcyCOP Paperback available 30 June.
A father wants to give his family the perfect Great American Family Road Trip, retracing a past trip out west, only to discover the road from his own childhood vacation is haunted by a past he thought he’d forgotten.
I took the family on a trip out west, in the opposite direction of a trip I took as a teenager. I wanted them to experience what I did twenty five years earlier, because I enjoyed seeing the country. During the two week drive across thousands of miles, a lot was seen, a lot happened and toward the end I got the idea to write about it. I spun it into a short story fiction, but it revolves around the day to day trip we took and the sites seen. While I don’t quite regret the trip, as it was neat to see the difference the country had changed along with some new sights, it is equally stressful for six people in a van and hotel room. I think anyone who can, should, because such memories are irreplaceable and life is too short to not see and do new things.
The Silence Alone. Scheduled for release September 2026 on Amazon in paperback & digital. Kindle/Digital available for presale now: https://a.co/d/0h6pL41Q Paperback available 15 Sept.
He thought he was protecting his family by working harder, saving money, planning, worrying alone and carrying the fear no one else could see.
Due to a sudden illness, he is forced to confront what he had hidden and shielded from his family. He must choose between control and honesty, between solitude and family.
The Silence Alone is a moving story about legacy and the quiet courage that many face alone, the cost of sacrificing for others.
I have worked among many people over the years and over half my career has been oversees away from home. I have had colleagues who died, colleagues who have spent years away from their family to provide for them and I am not immune. Being so far from home, alone, is difficult on the mind, body and spirit. Difficult choices are made and not always easy to live with. This story is for all those people in difficult positions.
