What is Sorry Bob!

Sorry Bob! is my book in progress...

Coming Soon!!!

It’s the book I wish had existed years ago...maybe then I wouldn’t have been so easily bamboozled by life. Or at least, I’d have seen the cracks in the bridge before driving over it.

The story starts with my dad, Bob, a good man with good sense who tried to raise me right.

Then along came culture, sometimes in suits, sometimes in sequins, whispering, “Live the dream.”
Ah, but the dream is never what it seems.

So I went wild. Sometimes really wild.

A health scare finally slammed the brakes long enough for me to start asking questions — and doing my research. And wouldn’t you know it? My dad was right about a lot.

But even though he and my mom raised me well, they missed the most important thing: why.
Why be good?

But it should never have been about "being good" it should have been about "living a good life" which enables flourishing, and keeps you anchored during troubling times.  

So that’s what this book is about — everything I’ve discovered about how to flourish even when the world, which is full of Happiness Hijackers, seems to be corroding around us.


What’s Inside:

  • The Happiness Hijackers — how they decay you to “save” you and fool you to rule you.
  • The Five B’s of Human Nature — what drives us and how we get off track.
  • How to Be Happy (and Flourish Anyway) — no fluff, no gurus, no glitter-covered lies.

Once you see the strings, honey, you start cutting them.


Looking for my other books?
Tap that Birdie Jane Lane tab up top in the navigation bar — that’s where the cozy stories live.
A little magic, a lot of heart, characters finding their courage.

Because around here, the magic isn’t out there somewhere —
it’s been in you the whole time.

Come on in. Kick your shoes off. Stay a while.
