About Me

I'm a writer. Even though I've written other books, "Laughter Kills...Laughter Heals" is my first novel. Originally I wrote it because I just wanted to tell a good keep-you-guessing, suspense-thriller-mystery. But the more I wrote, the more I found myself weaving in comments (through the characters' experiences) about things that really matter to me. For instance, slowing down global warming, protecting children, the power of forgiveness, the healing power of laughter, the importance of family, calling attention to human rights violations in China, etc. Does the book preach about these things? Uhn-uhn. Nor do I. But since I feel we can all (including me) do better in addressing these things, they certainly made themselves known through my writing of the book.

Pit Bulls

Page 19: At first Miriah was leery about permitting her to bring their pit bull, but it didn't take her long to realize that because Asia was raised with love rather than agression, she was as gentle as her own dog, Champ. And the two of them got along just fine.

I believe this is true. If you raise a pit bull with love rather than agression,
it can be a great family dog. I think there is one danger that they may impose, though: if they do turn agressive, their powerful jaws can do more damage than most other dogs'. But I do know families who have them and love them and couldn't be more pleased with them. I'd probably take the risk of owning one if I had the opportunity to raise it from a puppy.
