Focus On! reminds us life is infused with vast potential, if we’re willing to stretch our minds & keep on learning.

When the dead control the living, that’s bad, but when you’re the ultimate weapon they need? Worse.

When one change shatters the lives of thousands, two brothers must survive on an island without hope.

Prose, Poetry & Purpose is all about writers and stories that touch our hearts, alter our choices, and change the world.

Focus On:

The United States of America is one of a hundred and ninety-five unique countries on Earth. Young and imperfect, Americans are demanding positive change, but where can we turn for inspiration and ideas?

Focus On! offers the insightful perspectives and voices of everyday people living in other countries. Why did the USA bail out its banks, while Iceland jailed its Banksters? How has Switzerland found the balance between high gun ownership and low gun violence? What strategies are helping the Netherlands and Portugal bring hard drug use to an all time low? How does Denmark manage not just free college – but “paid to go to school” college? Focus On! brings the world’s ideas within reach. Enjoy!
