We need to have self-esteem if we are to reach our potential. School, with its series of challenges and achievements, can be extended to life. Think about how good you feel when someone compliments you; think about how good you feel when someone doesn't. Do you feel the same? How much more easily are you able to complete a task when you feel confident doing it and know your own strength? How excited do you feel, knowing the next thing you'll achieve?
Welcome to the

Me-Verse

BOOK 1: SCHEDULED FOR
2025 RELEASE
Your Origin Story
Here's the great secret:
Whether you believe in God, or gods, or simple science, we all can agree we started from the same thing—
let's call it a
Me.
Through 99% of our lives, from DNA, to dinosaurs, to sailing the seven seas,
we've all shared the same story.
Meet the
Characters
Whether you grew up on the street, a fancy hotel, or an island paradise with your own private sand castle,
once upon a time, we were all a child.
Explore Your Timeline
Here's the bottom line:
At a certain age,
we left our
island
in the sky,
and went on
an adventure
to last a lifetime.
THE STORY BEGINS...WITH YOU!
Here's a sneak peek
at where you'll be
going over the course of the series...
JOY!
Your story begins here, upon receiving your
very first diary.
Write your personal
about the author page, your acknowledgements, get your table of contents ready, and launch out
on the first chapter of your odyssey.
AUS
After receiving your conflict—that is, your personal call
to adventure—it's time to meet your mentor.
ENTER ME...THE FIRST YEAR BEGINS!
STEP
What are your favorite first school memories?
That first step into its exciting new world of possibilities, first friends, first teachers, that fresh apple you deliver with the juice of peanut butter and jelly, that weird hunk of lunch-lady ooze called mystery meat?
CLOCKTOBER
The most Spooktacular time
of the Year is here!
Attend your first Book Fair, get ready for the Fall Festival,
bake some pie in the sky,
attend a masquerade,
go trick-or-treating,
outsmart the bully!
Skipping ahead much later...
SPRILL
Always felt like you were college material? The time to prove it is now...
Remember what it was like to receive your acceptance letter? Or how it would have felt, as you walked past your new professors, as you got ready for the career
that would launch you into your
happily ever after?
MAY
Having now grown up, we "Kids" are off to live our lives.
There is Holy Matrimony, Honey Moons, building new Houses on (little) Green Hills, Careers, and Kids—the Wheel of Life is spinning—Mid-Life Crises, Retirement, Cemeteries and Celebrations of Life—
read about it all, and recount it, in this epic, voluminous, near-conclusion to the first grand arc of Me.
Skipping ahead much later...
THE TIME BEINGS
Ever wanted to learn String Theory?
People say, "Well, for the time being, that's what it's going to have to be."
Meet those magical mystical creatures upon which we've based our theory!
THE BIG BANG!
Nearly 14 billion years ago (as of the time of this writing), Everything that was, and is, and ever will be, came from nothing.
Just like a bunch of popping popcorn exploding at the movies.
Quarks, the Higgs Boson (aka, 'The God Particle',) Protons, Helium Hydride, the Cosmic Microwave—now's your chance to learn about Everything!

HADEAN
Welcome to Earth—or is it? The Explosive Opening to the Early Early Earth Arc has arrived!

Spanning 2 billion years, this is the time of the First Cells, from Archaea and Bacteria—to the time when our DNA weaves and unravels into endless Species—to Eukaryotes, Multicellularity, the Sexual Revolution, Hothouse and Snowball Earth, leading on to the Civilization of the Cell, and a dawning of a new Eon!

everyone's favorite era...

PARADISE
After the sagas and epic migrations of the Miocene, Pliocene, and early Pleistocene, at long last, Paradise is here.
We've found our Forever Home. It seems like Jannah, or Meru, or the Garden of Eden...(or whatever we'll decide to call it).
Neanderthals, Denisovans, the miraculous births of humanity's children.
THE GLOBAL DISPERSAL
(The Great Migration!) At long last, it's here!
From a small group of individuals, we spread across Africa, leave the continent, and begin our epic journey across the entire world!
