The Books

Native Waters

Here is a world created by Crawfish at the command of the Creator of All Things. These are the lands and waters of the “people of the lake”, always changing, never ending.Between the gunwales of a small wooden bateau, a boy grows, learns the things that define a life, and sets out on a voyage of discovery in disdain for this watery world, yet returns at last to the sanctuary and peace within it.

It is a story of Native American legacy, Acadian heritage, of wooden boats and fly-fishing; there are ghosts here, thousands of years old, ancient spirits and ancestral creatures.

It is a story as told by water. Water that has flowed through the veins of ancestors for thousands of years. Water that flows into eternity.

Chasing Thunderbirds

A young Indian boy waits with his grandfather for death, and the spirit that will claim him. A dragon teaches a suicidal woman how to find rare, elusive magic. A mute stranger visits an orphaned boy and his grandmother, leaving a wake of wreckage. Ol’ Scratch himself hires a builder to construct a schooner. And a bamboo fly rod is all that stands between life and what may wait beyond it. In these unique tales, ordinary people move through extraordinary circles. Circles of life. Circles of death. At the very least, circles of change, and the chasing of thunderbirds.

Both available at online retailers such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble!
