Tiwaka Goes to Waikiki

Just published the 3rd book in the series "The Life and Times of a Hawaiian Tiki Bar".
"Tiwaka Goes to Waikiki" has more action than the previous two books and focuses on the surfacing heroism of Tiwaka.  Of course there's a good surf scene, plenty of character development and enough humor to get wishing for Book 4!  
Big mahalos to Kerne Erickson for the awesome cover art.Big mahalos as well to Valentina Cano for proofreading (I learned even more this time!)
"Tiwaka Goes to Lahaina" will be out this summer, 2012.  Enjoy!

Go for It!

Good Review in for "The Parrot Talks in Chocolate"

4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars, October 26, 2011By Danie - See all my reviewsThis review is from: The Parrot Talks in Chocolate (The Life and Times of a Hawaiian Tiki Bar #1) (Kindle Edition)This copy was received free for review. I try to avoid any other reviews before reading so any comments are my own views. 

---- 

I want to visit :o( 

Oddly enough I started this book while travelling and it didn't grab my attention as much as it did when I picked it up a few weeks later upon my return home. Maybe during my travels I was finding my own slice of heaven and didn't need the far-off dream (at least while I'm at home) that the book portrays. 

It took me a while to get into almost the same as adjusting to a slower pace of life and meeting new friends does. The narrative flows nicely and the characters are beautifully conveyed. As a book end to end in terms of plot not a lot happens but in terms of people and experiences so much goes on that it not apparent until you slow down to enjoy the smaller (but oh so important) things in life that you can revel in each experience and each person as an individual. 

There is so much I want to write about this book but don't quite know how to put it in words, some parts of the book are so vivid that I'm almost experiencing it myself. To call it a good book seems insufficient and yes as usual with my reviews I want half stars. 4 and a half stars.

President Obama's Retirement

Anytime any of us works long hardhours, gets flak from our competitors on a daily (or hourly) basis itcan conjure up thoughts of retirement. When a vacation plan gets yougrief from those saying there is too much left undone at the end ofthe day ( i.e. hoping you'll keel over dead from exhaustion) youmight let the thought of retirement linger a little longer.
Some personalities thrive on thepressure though, enjoy the challenge and find reward in the smallvictories. Air traffic controllers must take some pride I imagine ingetting every plane on the ground safely, everyPolice/Fire/Rescue/Military employee relishes the lives they domanage to save and I am going out on a limb here but I suspect thePresident of the United States of America has his own personalrewards.
I give all of these people totalrespect and admiration for even attempting these jobs. Agree ordisagree with their processes but you must admit the workloads areincredible. Most of us could never, would never given the chance,want any of these jobs. Too stressful, too much sadness, too manypeople hating every breath you take. How do these personalities do it?
I am here to tell you - every one ofthem frequents Tiwaka's Tiki Bar & Grill. Granted most of themdo it unconsciously and for the most part wouldn't know the place ifthey stumbled up to the thatched roof koa-wood bar with a talkingparrot guarding the liquor bottles. Yet, they do so in a virtual way, as a matter ofsurvival.   In a world fraught with stress they know how to go to"their happy place." They may call it the local bar, orlistening to a favorite song, or hanging with family, but it's allthe same place. A brief moment in time when they are in control oftheir own happiness. It's a temporary reprieve from the chaos of the world  called paradise.
I write books that take my readers tojust such internal paradises, places where their own mind can sooththe edges from a crazy world. I love the quote, from a songsomewhere, "We all have wings, but most of us don't know why". Tiwaka the Parrot can show them why.
I hope that President Obama, originallyfrom Hawaii, finds the magic of Tiwaka's Tiki Bar & Grill when heis freed from the clamour and divisiveness of Washington D.C., be it2013 or 2017.Monday's occur all week? Come on over to Tiwaka's Tiki Bar & Grill (Kindle, NOOK)
