Don Swann II


Publisher info

I'm just an old surfer, ex banker and former coach, with a public school education, whom (that's right I said whom) grew up in Kailua Town, Hawaii and even though I now live far away, my heart and the lessons learned about cultural, social and environmental issues still lives in the expectations of my mind.

I'm exploring my ability to tell stories in complete sentences and hope to perhaps sneak in a few lessons and social issues, along the way for the littlest of youngsters looking to grow in body, mind and spirit and yet I am ambitious enough to attempt to tell a compelling story that hopefully will make adults want to turn the page too and that part is a work in progress.

Oh yeah, I design t shirts too. Call me creative, or maybe I'm the guy that overcame his fear of what others think and yet awaits your kind response (hopefully) but if you feel that it might be a work of crap, if you would be so kind to tell me not only why, but how it could be better.

Sometimes the road to improvement, is littered with kind words, that fail to tell the story and with your help, I hope to improve with each new effort and am most appreciative with your patience
