The Birdhouse Project

Did we mention that Jeff recently co-wrote a book? Oh, and did we mention that I (fookaDESIGNS) designed the cover for the book? And did we happen to mention that this book came out just two short months ago and so far has really taken off (selling 500 copies) with lots of buzz circulating including newspaper articles and television coverage with demand for presentations and book signings across the state of Kansas??? We didn't?! Well, now we did. :)

It's not that we've been keeping this a secret or trying to hide it from all of you. It's just that, well, we've been working so hard we haven't had a chance to mention it before now. So, we would like to FINALLY introduce The Birdhouse Project - Collaboration of the Heart Mind and Hands.



This first book is a project-based healing book that helps people deal with feelings of grief and loss whether it be from death, divorce or some other painful tragedy. This book tells the story of Jeff's collaborative partner, Kris Munsch, and how Kris found his way to a new normal after the sudden death of his teenage son, Blake. The project gives readers a sense of purpose and direction that can be difficult to find during the emotional crisis that follows tragedy. You can find out more about the book, the authors and the story at The Birdhouse Project website.

And before we fail to mention it, Jeff is currently working on the second book from The Birdhouse Project series. This book will use Jeff's experiences as a teenager as a jumping off point for people dealing with a different kind of loss - the loss of direction and hope - and will be geared towards teens and young adults who find themselves drowning in the consequences of their decisions. Here is a sneak peak of the cover of the new book:
