My latest book is a memoir entitled “Weight Loss Surgery After Age 50: The Geriatric Bariatric Life.” I want other senior citizens to know that there is no upper age limit for bariatric surgery. It saved and improved my life at age 62. I’ve kept the weight off for over three years without suffering using a 15-point strategy.

My 8 books and many more booklets cover a wide range of topics. The booklet series include: 1) The Accidental Wisdom Series booklets share the serendipitous, the wisdom arising from four decades of magazine article research. 2) The Buying Guide for International Collectibles and Folk-Art Series focuses on ceramic sculpture, wood carvings, embroidery, sterling silver figurines, and more from around the world. 3) The Right Now Series offer innovative ideas that can be applied immediately to questions and issues that arise from being human.

As of this writing, I am a sexagenarian who has worked as a free-lance writer in America's heartland for over 40 years. I have earned degrees in Secondary Education and Psychology.
