about this book: After watching one too many "doomsday" documentaries regarding the supposed end of the Mayan calendar on December 21, 2012, I felt both disheartened and determined. I don't embrace apocalyptic theories and was compelled to write a novel of hope. I completed the preliminary manuscript within 2 months and named it "Beyond the Trees." Then a fascinating phenomenon occurred. One day while I was working a crossword puzzle, the word "publish" appeared, followed by the word "plateau." I realized I'd had a light-bulb moment! Paying attention to this, I renamed my novel "Plateau" and subtitled it "Beyond the Trees, Beyond 2012." I then asked a dear friend to draw the cover art, envisioning a prismatic crystal heart, a dominant symbol throughout the story. The end product was exquisite.

The protagonist in "Plateau" is a 15-year-old tribal female named W'Hyani, who discovers her strengths and her destiny by overcoming adversity while in concert with honoring the wisdom of her elders. Her will, fortitude, and ingenuity are tested many times over within the tenor of adventure and mystery. She must learn to trust blindly and overcome fear exhaustively, without fully knowing why she was born the Keeper of the Crystal Heart. The Crystal Heart is the requisite key to the Great Mosaic of Life. W'Hyani's people, the E'Ghali, inject humor and wisdom throughout this tale of adventure and hope. Will love prevail over fear?

This is a question millions are asking across the globe. Some believe December 21, 2012 will herald the apocalypse; others do not. But on this day, the sun will rise in the center of the galaxy for the first time in 26,000 years, and several planets will have been aligned. The influx of galactic energy that will ensue is speculated to have a cataclysmic effect on the earth and all her inhabitants. So how do we prepare for such a cosmic event?"Plateau" proffers a dash of insight and a bounty of hope.

What I wish to say to my readers is this: We must keep our hearts open and act from love instead of react from fear, and we must practice gratitude and compassion within every moment and with every breath. In doing so, we'll raise our vibratory rate and help elevate the human species to a higher consciousness, facilitating both personal and global peace. And above all, we must harm none and walk in beauty...
