Beskrivelse

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2339048/open_sms] I've  been back to Africa 4 more times, and I've c volunteered in urban India, and was a U.N. Volunteer in Africa. I wrote The Pleasure Seeker because I know what it's like to be an 'other'.  People believe so many myths about others, and  now, with the internet, those myths spread faster.  Jews are actually a minority in the U.S,A., and most of us are secular. We're not Zionists.  But Sikh are even more of a minority, and are constantly confused with being either Muslim or Hindu...and are often attacked out of hatred.

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2339048/open_sms]  My name is Zen Ase and I’m a best selling author, performer and globally ranked podcaster. I began journaling as a kid and have been hooked on writing ever since, but life has a way of derailing our passions. My family didn’t support my career as a writer, so I became and award winner teacher and got married. I stopped writing for 17 years. In 2014, I went through a divorce and decided to reclaim my dreams. I started writing again and performing poetry. I’ve written 5 books, four of them Amazon best sellers, and been published in dozens of magazines. I’ve performed over 100 times and organized dozens of cultural events. My work in the community gained me a Congressional Award for activism.

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2339048/open_sms] I wrote Astra The Lonely Airplane, a rhyming children’s picture book, after my husband’s job as Chief Pilot of a corporate jet came to a grinding halt during the COVID-19 pandemic. I sat her beautiful interior one last time and openly wept, feeling sick to my stomach wondering what would become of her, and how long she would in the hangar before being flown again.  Astra The Lonely Airplane, (Brandylane Publishers, Inc.), a rhyming picture book, was released on March 2, 2022.  The book is appropriate for children ages 3-10, and includes a 3-minute video with an up close and personal tour of Astra with the real Captain Dan, (my husband), along with a two-page-glossary. The second book in the series, entitled Astra In Hollywood, was released on March 4, 2024 during “Read Across America Week.” The sequel picks up where Astra The Lonely Airplane leaves us, as Astra is getting settled in to her hangar in Hollywood. She finds herself surrounded by three new friends: Lana, a sleek beautiful Learjet; a giant cargo plane named Hank; and Helen the crime-fighting helicopter! When Lana, Hank and Helen are each faced with unexpected problems, Astra discovers that you don’t need to be the fastest, strongest or bravest to be important. It’s being a good friend that makes you a star!
