    Happy Monday, Fabulous Listener!

    It’s a hot summer day here in Texas and I hope you are doing amazing. We have a fabulous guest this evening for us. The talented Mr. Don Sawyer is sharing his new book with us, The Burning Gem.

    An educator and writer, Don grew up in Michigan and move to Canada in the 1960s, where he more or less flunked out of his PhD program in Modern Chinese History at the University of British Columbia. This turned out to be a blessing as it opened up a world of opportunity and experiences. From teaching in a small Newfoundland outport to training community workers in West Africa; to teaching adults on a First Nations community in British Columbia to designing a climate change action course for Jamaican youth, he has worked with youth and adults from many backgrounds.

    Inevitably, these experiences have made their way into his writing. Don has authored over 12 books, including two Canadian bestsellers. His articles and op-eds have appeared in many journals and most of Canada’s major dailies. He currently lives in St Catharines, Ontario, with Jan Henig Sawyer, his wife of 55 years. To learn more about the fabulous Mr. Don, check out his website at www.donsawyer.org.
