Biography
Author Bio
Spice to the Body is my second unpublished book. I am a novice and have had no formal training in writing, nevertheless I began writing and compiling my manuscripts in October 2008, immediately after my 35th birthday. It was a challenging time for me because I was struggling without a job and trying to re-establish myself in Canada. Despite my circumstances, I also felt an urgency in me that was burning so much that I could not sleep at night until I put pen to paper. I must say had no desire put together any manuscript, but I kept envisioning it.
Finally, I completed Spice to the Body in January 2009; in spite of my accomplishment, I felt depressed and experienced a sense of apprehension and wondered “why?” I withdrew to weigh the pros and cons of my emotions, as I felt lost and confused as though something strange was happening to me. I was too afraid to talk to anyone about it because I, myself, did not know what the cause was. It was like having a spiritual “high” one minute and, suddenly, the next minute, experiencing feelings of disorientation and bombarding negative thoughts. So, I took a break from writing for one year, and I realized how significant my writing had become to me. I was the happiest when I wrote, but when I did not, I felt something missing. I discovered another side of me that needed a voice, a channel to express myself. After my grandmother Olga (blessed be her memory) passed away, I opened Spice to the Body and made a decision to submit my manuscript. I figured, “nothing ventured, nothing gained.”
My education includes two years of Bible school, a background in banking and accounting along with a fair bit of traveling. I have dreams just like everyone else although mine seem to be larger than life in a strange way making them a driving force in my writing endeavors. Over the years, I have had to overcome many challenges, particularly living in a country where I have no family, and trying to find my way in the “maze.” I have learnt to swim and not sink. I can take a deep breath and say, “Lord, thank you. I couldn't have done it without you.”
My circumstances don’t define me, that is what I say to myself when life challenges me to rise higher, fi ght harder and stretch a little bit more. It brings me to my knees, causing me to run my race with a fierce passion that burns like fi re. It’s the spice of life!
