Leaves Fall Silently

Imagine a world in which there is only respect, for ourselves and for others. A world in which disputes are resolved over bowls  of tea and where the only purpose of ambition is to make the world a better place, for everyone.

Leaves fall silently is a collection of ideas and stories and poems from a world viewed simply, hopefully.

Time Does Not Stop: An Adventurous Novel

Obnoxious Alex Mule was raised in lavish Royal Ludlet, known for its fame and fortune. Free-spirited Indiana was raised in desolate Lower Ludlet, known for its poverty and hardships. Neither have met one another until one fateful day on their joint seventeenth birthday, when they find themselves caught up in a top-secret prophecy dating back from before they were born.

They are given one mission: find a way out of their enchanted bonds by solving a mystical riddle while trying not to get killed by terrifying beasts and dangerous plants that have remained hidden from civilisation in Ludlet Forest. They have one week to crack the brainteaser or their lives as they know it will be changed forever.

A coming-of-age tale sees Alex and Indiana form the unlikeliest of connections as they try desperately to get away from each other and back to the happy simple lives they are used to.

About the Author

To date, I have spent seven and a half years on the ship, obtained my coxswains and master 24< tickets, working as a watch leader, bosun or both. Currently work at the Australian Maritime And Fisheries Academy as bosun and teacher’s assistant. Can honestly say, following my passion has been the most rewarding and fulling thing I have ever done. You haven’t lived if you haven’t followed your heart, come what may. The world is an amazing place, and so is humanity. Teaching and helping people.

Volunteering (giving of yourself is the biggest gift you can give someone or something). And, doing all this on a tall ship platform, at sea, is amazing.

I have Asperger’s Syndrome (Autism Spectrum). But I didn’t let it stop me from growing and achieving. Without it, I wouldn’t think in the unique way that I do, as it contributes to who I am, but isn’t who I am. I hope that you have enjoyed this book as much as I have enjoyed writing it, and the experiences that went into its making.

Seize the day.
