About the Author

My outlook on life is like Bernie’s. His journeys take him many places, and he always has a positive outlook on his surroundings, wherever that may be. Since becoming a Christian, I try to see the best in people, and my desire is to bring some sunshine to people’s lives along the was. I thought of Bernie when I would read to my three children as they were growing up. I used to read them all the classics, but then I started to write about a little earthworm who would dig his way around in the earth and pop up at different places, and his adventure would begin. The words I wrote soon became a book. My son, Paul, who was artistically gifted, brought Bernie to life. The early writings of Bernie’s Journey sat upon the shelf for years until Paul, who is active-duty USN, was deployed overseas. That is when I had the idea to send him the draft of the first book. Thank God, Paul had some down time, and he started his sketches during that time. Drawing the pictures for Bernie’s Journey not only helped Paul occupy some otherwise unpleasant hours, but our book was coming to fruition.
