Produktbeschreibung

Best selling Taoist author, William Martin, has created a fictional community that will usher the reader into the magical ordinariness of living in harmony with the flow of life. Carson Beach, Oregon, is a coastal town where James Cooper, owner and head cook of The Happy Frog Cafe, creates food and community. Connie Delaney, Cooper's assistant and resident fey woman sees a world most people ignore. Connie's long-time life partner, Mary O'Hara, is Director of Animal Medicine at the Oregon Wildlife Refuge. A Japanese doctor, a Chinese artist, an Irish police detective, the proprietress of a unique bookstore, and an assortment of other characters of benevolent oddness, comprise a collection of extraordinary love and support. Into this world comes Carl DeWilde, a refugee from Grand Rapids, Michigan, whose 2000 mile cross-country escape deposits him in Carson Beach, wondering where in the world he was and what in the hell he was doing. Seeing a sign that proclaimed, "The Happy Frog Cafe - Welcome Weary Traveler," Carl thinks, "That's me," and walks up the path to enter a new world, a world that will transform his life.

William Martin's first work of fiction - Tales of the Happy Frog brings the reader an image of hope that the world may indeed have the hidden seeds of a transformation that will renew life on planet Earth.

Autorenporträt

I have taken a winding road that has led me straight to the present moment. I have, over the years, worn the labels of, "Christian, Buddhist, and Taoist." I have followed careers called, "Scientist, Minister, Therapist, Writer, and Painter."

I have two children by my first marriage. Lara and John are delightful people and bring me much joy. I have three grandchildren, Jillian, Andrew, and Emma - all of whom likewise delight me. I have been married to Nancy for 27 years now and she is the mate of my heart and I cherish my life with her. Nancy and I now live in the mountains of Northern California, near the sacred Mount Shasta. We are deeply grateful to that dear Mountain for allowing us to live at her feet.

I write these words at the age of 72 years and I sense that I am in the most creative, generative, and in many ways, powerful time of my life. I write, publish, paint, drum, dance, walk in the forests, and celebrate my life.
