Books That Tell the Truth.

I write books that come from lived experience — stories that explore dementia, addiction, homelessness, and the parts of life we don’t always talk about. I try to blend honesty, humour, and emotion to make difficult subjects feel human and real. My goal is to start conversations, challenge stigma, and help people feel seen. If you’re looking for stories that stay with you, make you laugh, and maybe even shift how you see the world — these books are for you.

The Forget Me Not Chronicles

The Forget Me Not Chronicles is my first book — a heartfelt, honest, and sometimes funny journey into the world of dementia. It’s not a textbook or a guide. It’s a story. One that captures the small moments, the tough days, and the unexpected laughter that often gets left out of the conversation.

Based on real experiences, the book is written to help families feel less alone, to show the humanity behind the diagnosis, and to gently challenge how we think about memory loss and care. If dementia has touched your life — or someone you love — I hope this book brings comfort, recognition, and maybe even a few much-needed laughs.
