A story for young hearts that need love and acceptance, just as they are.

With a critical mom and an apathetic dad, Jiho, to whom home is not a place for comfort, one day meets a bird who can speak. The bird guides Jiho to a beautiful village where they encounter a landlord with a tiny garden and a family along the seashore.

What does the bird want to tell Jiho?

In the Modern Tower of Babel

In the original fable of the Tower of Babel, as punishment for attempting to build a tower into the heavens, the people were relegated to an inability to communicate, each speaking a different language. Hence the term “to Babel.”

The Modern Tower of Babel refers not to multiple languages but to the increasing spread of misinformation, disinformation, and fake news. We are increasingly disadvantaged in our ability to establish fact from fiction and truth from lies. This confusion is leading to the chaos we now see across many aspects of society: In medicine, should we vaccinate our children or not? In the health of our environment, are global warming and climate change a reality, or are they a hoax? And, of course, in politics, where anything seems permissible and truth is often discarded in favor of retaining power.

But all is not lost. If we are smart enough to use modern technologies; such as AI; intelligently and with proper regulation, we can harness the wealth of information available to us and leverage modern tools to distinguish fact from fiction and rigorously evaluate evidence. But that will only happen if we use AI properly, and given our current course, that outcome is far from assured.

The Clock and the Garden

Why are some people organized, meticulous, and rigid in their everyday lives? While other people focus on the beauty in everything, including plants, animals, gardens, and a field of wildflowers. These personalities usually collide. This story is about a conversation between two such personalities—a structured grandfather clock and a free-spirited flower garden. Through their conversation, they discover the value of both order and spontaneity—reason and emotion. Ultimately, the story conveys that “we should use our heads to guide us but never forget to follow our hearts.”

Lead with Light

In a time when leadership is measured by influence rather than rank, Lead with Light offers a fresh, purpose-driven approach to mentorship. Combining timeless archetypes with contemporary executive strategy, Scott Sowell presents a mentorship model that ignites transformation through one conversation, one connection, one clear act at a time.

Blending emotional intelligence with disciplined strategy, the book introduces seven archetypal lenses—Strategist, Protector, Messenger, Healer, Connector, Illuminator, and Steward—that illuminate distinct pathways to leadership mastery. Through vivid symbolism, compelling case studies, and reflective exercises, readers learn to mentor with empathy, communicate with authenticity, and lead with moral clarity.

More than a framework, Lead with Light is a guiding philosophy for anyone seeking to elevate their impact. Whether you are a seasoned executive steering organizational change or an emerging leader expanding your influence, this book provides a practical compass for navigating complexity with wisdom and grace.

Leadership is not only about what we create; it is about who we develop.

More Than Adequate

Nature is the true goddess of life,

She is the mother who brings the sun and moon,

The one who decides if the wind blows or stands,

Who brings the hurricanes to shore,

The ground to a freeze,

And the living to an end.

It is by her mercy that we get to feel today, whether we’d wish to or not.

The rainbow doesn’t just come; its colors are created by the destruction of the storm.

Famous Historical Mysteries & Their Solutions

Many famous historical events have been labelled as mysterious, sometimes allowing people to suggest that paranormal forces were involved. The events discussed here have a reasonable explanation once you examine all the available evidence using an unbiased viewpoint. You may enjoy stories of mysterious past events that defy explanation, but what if there is a reasonable explanation that no one has properly presented to you?

Even experienced investigators have difficulty defining what happened in certain cases, and investigators can prove biased. However, what would you be able to establish if you had all the available information? If you strip away theories and interpretations that people have presented, it leaves just the facts behind; that allows you to think for yourself. With the core facts presented in each account, which of the questions discussed in this book can you answer?

Was Lizzie Borden guilty? Did someone murder Marilyn Monroe? Did Meriwether Lewis commit suicide? Was Billy the Kid killed by Pat Garrett? Were paranormal forces involved in the cases of Devon’s Walking Devil, the Hammersmith Ghost, Spring-Heeled Jack, the disappearance of the crew of the Mary Celeste, or even the 1947 Roswell Incident? What happened to Jimmy Hoffa, Ambrose Bierce, Hale Boggs, Dorothy Arnold, or Percy Fawcett? Was America’s Stonehenge built by ancient Europeans? Who made it to the Americas before Christopher Columbus? Where can we find Atlantis?

Once you can define the real facts, what can you figure out about the cases presented here? You will be surprised.

House of Windows

Every house remembers what it has seen. Every window holds a secret.

In House of Windows, John Erik Dunnam invites readers into a hauntingly beautiful exploration of memory, grief, and the fragile architecture of the human spirit. This is not merely a story—it is an experience that peers through the glass between past and present, love and loss, reality and illusion. Each page draws you closer to the truth that every reflection carries both light and shadow.

Dunnam’s lyrical prose shimmers with emotion, capturing the quiet ache of nostalgia and the unrelenting pursuit of understanding one’s own story. The house becomes a mirror—its rooms echoing the voices we try to forget, its windows revealing the parts of ourselves we cannot hide.

House of Windows dares readers to look closer, to open the shutters of their own hearts, and to see what has always been waiting on the other side of the glass. A meditation on truth, trauma, and transformation, this work is a testament to the beauty that lingers long after the storm has passed.

Prepare to enter a world where every pane tells a story—and every story leaves a crack in the glass.

Day's Eye

Come take a walk with me! As we stroll through a field of soft green clover, we stumble upon a daisy. She stands out; her graceful white petals frame her golden center. As she sways in the wind, we see ourselves, as we too are tousled about. Life can make us anxious. Life can make us worry. Days can be sunny, and days can be stormy. But we can find calm and peace even in the whirlwind that every new day brings. The daisy teaches us everything we need to know: in the morning when we wake, in the darkest of nights, and in all the storms of life, we can have hope, peace, and trust. Wild and free like a flower in a field, we can live in faith and trust in tomorrow. We are resilient and strong just like the daisy. Let’s face the sun because a new day is dawning, storms aren’t forever, and there is always a reason to hope!

Day’s eye, day’s eye, what do you see?

I see myself—beautiful and strong.

Wild and free

Staring back at me.

Run Horse Run

Hatchell Breeze has now retired from the police force yet and, out of boredom, has teamed up with his old partner, Phillip Young, to open the Breeze Investigations & Security office across the street from the police department, where he formerly headed the detective unit for homicide and all violent crime for the city of Greenville.

Their very first case comes as a surprise, investigating the shooting of a thoroughbred horse while the horse is running a stakes race on the local racetrack.

Is it intentional or a fluke or related to another crime where a notorious criminal was assassinated two weeks earlier? This leads Breeze and the police force on an unusual hunt to solve the mystery before another crime happens. Breeze soon learns the horse industry is truly a totally different animal as he mingles with the elite of the industry and uncovers unlawful acts and plots among the leaders and players, assisted by two cousins who are the daughters of the owners of two of the most famous Kentucky horse farms.

Breeze’s continuing investigation soon opens old wounds he thought were dead and buried and exposes friends, family, and associates to impending danger as he rushes to solve the case before more violence can occur while the spring racing meet is underway and the entire industry is brought down nationwide.

This is the third crime novel of the Hatchell Breeze stories; the fourth is due out in the fall of 2026.
