Pieces of My Heart is a collection of original prose and poetry, paired with one-of-a-kind photos and artwork. My prose is motivational, somewhat of an epiphany to open your eyes and take in the life around you. A couple of the pieces dive into my soul, revealing more of my core. My poetry is about love, heartbreak, and finding the pieces of your soul after enduring life’s pains. It is not always sunshine and happiness, the dark corners of my mind came out ever so slightly in a few pieces.

Ready! Set! Shoot! explains the basics of photography for the beginner. It covers the foundations of achieving correct exposure, items of photography, camera modes, exposure, choosing the right settings, metering, white balance, rules of basic composition, an explanation of the histogram, and other topics. There are visuals to support the concepts that are explained. This is a must for the beginning photographer who wants to learn to take control of their dslr, get off auto, and shoot in manual.
