The Foundation Series by Isaac Asimov
I didn't understand myself when I was growing up in the 'not so rich' Caribbean neighborhood of Waterloo (aptly named, because every year during the hurricane season, the Heavens opened up and rained down so much water, it washed the road and some houses away). Only later did I learn that we were living directly below a sugar cane 'plantation' where water was redirected as a runoff for the crop. Luckily, our little house was perched safely upon a questionable hill which barely kept us safe.

How ‘The Rules’ Gave Me Better Self Esteem. Top Story - August 2023.
When I was younger I had problems getting dates. I kept watching everyone around me coupling up and it made me feel like there was something wrong with me. I’m kind of an open book when it comes to my feelings, so my friends and family would often see me moping about it. They’d dispense advice like that old Supremes song. You can’t hurry love…

Compass Flame. Runner-Up in Book Club Challenge.
Fourth grade was a weird year for me. It led to other weird years, which have made up my life up to this point. For context, I have an older brother. When he aged into middle school, we had to switch our school campus. All of the people I knew and the halls I had spent hours and hours in were switched. I left my friends, got glasses, and attended class with a new group of 20ish kids who all knew each other since they were in kindergarten.
