While, you've most likely arrived here to learn more about The Scent of God, I'm happy to announce that my second book, A View of the Lake is now available for purchase. A View of the Lake will delight many of you, especially those who love my work, lake-lovers of any age or ilk, and anyone who dreams of moving to a special place and wonders what the experience would be like. To learn more about the book, click on the A View of the Lake link under My Works to the right. For a signed copy of the book, contact the publisher at http:/​/​www.lakesuperiormagazine.com/​cat/​vol.html.

Twice a year, I interact with my readers through my newsletter which is available by clicking the "Newsletter" link on the list of options above. I've also added a new feature, a blog called "Random Musings," a "cabbages and kings" sort of blog to keep you abreast of life on Lake Superior, spiritual journeys, writing projects and updates, new books, travel stories. So check it out. Click the "Blog" link from the list of options at the top of this page.

Should you belong to a book club I encourage you to contact me by clicking "contact author" in the bar above if you'd like me to visit. Distance is not a factor, as a working speaker phone is all that's necessary. By clicking "contact author" in the link above, you can also obtain free signed bookplates for your copy ofThe Scent of God. I will need your mailing address and the number of bookplates you'd like.

Whatever the reason for your visit, you'll find plenty about my work and me here and I hope you'll come back frequently to check the blog,to look for updated news, and to view the new photos I periodically post to supplement the written word.

I'd love to hear from you, so should you be inclined, I encourage you to leave a comment by clicking the "Comments" link at the top of this page.

Beryl lives on the North Shore of Lake Superior - a magical place of birch, maple, and pine forests, rugged cliffs, wildlife -- fox, moose, bear, wolves, chickadees, nuthatches, wild geese, chipmunks and the ever-present and ever-foraging deer. And yes, there are humans, not a lot of them (especially in winter), but mostly a creative, hardy lot.
