Writing Books for Curious People.
Brooks is a writer of books and stories; a student and teacher of effective communications; and a hall-of-fame researcher in the field of forestry.
Brooks loves reading and writing books.
Like other children, I pretended to be able to read the books that my parents read to me dozens of times. Over the years, when interested in a topic or waiting at a doctor’s office or sitting on the bus, I would read. To this day, I find wisdom, escape, and inspiration in books. Now, when curious about a theme or provoked by an idea, I study and write books. Please explore this site to learn more!
