Profiles in Canadian Literature is a wide-ranging series of essays on Canadian authors. Each profile acquaints the reader with the writer's work, providing insight into themes, techniques, and special characteristics, as well as a chronology of the author's life. Finally, there is a bibliography of primary works and criticism that suggests avenues for further study. "I know of no better introduction to these writers, and the studies in question are full of basic information not readily obtainable elsewhere." -U of T Quarterly.
Fundamentals of Writing is a book written specifically for those who want to improve their writing skills and apply them to writing articles (for newspapers, magazines, and corporate publications), media releases, case studies, blog posts and social media content. The book is based on several writing courses that I teach online for University of Toronto continuing education students and for private students and corporate clients. And it is filled with samples, examples and exercises to get you writing. Fundamentals of Writing is for you if you are looking to do any of the following: become a more effective writer; organize your thoughts before you write; write for a defined audience; make your points in a clear, concise, focused manner. My hope is that this book will help you effectively structure your written communication when writing articles, media releases, case studies, blog posts and social media content.

This book is a compilation of short stories about my life and certain experiences I've had. They cover issues such as race, faith, addiction, the mistreatment of women, and overall degradation of moral values. It addresses certain immoral principles and poses questions to make people think and hold themselves accountable for their actions and the image they portray to the world. They're meant to question some of the norms of our society, as well as give people some insight into who I am and how I developed the opinions that I did. My hope is that they will be a positive example for children and all people, not only of the present, but also the future. The ultimate goal is to set a better standard for the youth so that they won't be negatively impacted by the corruption that I feel has permeated its way through the system.

Many of our global cities are distressed and facing a host of issues: economic collapse in the face of rising expectations, social disintegration and civil unrest, and ecological degradation and the threats associated with climate change, including more frequent and more severe natural disasters. Our long-held assumptions about man and nature and how they interact are defunct.
