JUST RELEASED!!
This is an altogether different direction that my writing has taken, but one that has been simmering for some time. RIPPLE EFFECTS is the name of a new children's books series  I have created to serve the middle-grade (8-12 year old) audience. 
In the series, three friends: Julie, Kavon, and Miguel inherit a time machine from their late science teacher and travel back in time to meet famous - and not so famous - inventors, at the point of their greatest frustration. They convince the inventors to continue on with their work by taking them into the future to witness first-hand the 'ripple effects' their creations would have on the world. Can you imagine the Wright brothers flying on a  commercial aircraft?
The first book in the series, The Men Who Stole from Birds, deals with exactly that scenario. 
The second book, The Best TV in Space, follows the three friends as they travel back to Mexico City in 1953 to meet Guillermo Gonzales Camarena, the man who invented the first color television which became the preferred system that NASA used for the Apollo moon missions. 
Future inventors for the book include Garrett Morgan, the inventor of the gas mask and traffic signal, and Hedy Lamar, the actress turned inventor who discovered frequency hopping which help turn the tide of WWII in the allies favor and gave birth to GPS and Bluetooth.
