Edmonton Senior/Calgary Senior newspapers are featuring my blog, "The Potter's Hand" on their website.

The blog is about mental illness in all its aspects, and its impact on family, friends, the world, and the individual.

John Nash died this week. 

I've come out of the shadows.

Please visit "The Potter's Hand" and comment.

Thank you.

Brought to you by SpaceHive, Kenna's debut novel originally published by a traditional small press in 2012 and republished by Authors for a Cause in March 2015. A rollicking adventure of friendly alien bees and the vicious wasp General Vard, a 12-year-old boy and his Muslim buddy who must alone save the world, and the formidable SpaceHive...on which Jason is abducted by the alien attackers and taken to India where the final Battle takes place.


Also by The Insanity Machine, our adventure and journey with paranoid schizophrenia, including the latest research available at the time of writing.
