My mission is simple: to bring love and light into people’s lives through my books, photography, and poetry. I strive to live through the consciousness of love, sharing my earth-walk journey to inspire others.
Featured Book
My eighth book, Guided by Love (published August 2024), is a deeply personal exploration of spiritual transformation, sharing my firsthand experiences and beliefs.
Discover the energy of love – connect to your surroundings and let the energy flow through you, touching your body, mind, and soul. Inspiration will flow and guide you on your path to the consciousness of love.
Guided by Love – Not just a book, but a way of life.
Guided by Love
“Manger has set the stage for positive living with ‘Guided by Love.’ With a great variety of self-help modalities, real life examples and practical tips, there is something for everyone to embrace. I keep thinking about what I’ve read, and it makes me smile.“
The Missing Caterpillar
“This book is so precious and inspiring! Parents and grandparents will be happy to read this to their little ones at bedtime! “
“This book is a winner.
I ordered this book for my grandson. He read it 5 times in three days. I think that says it all.“
Legend of the Twin Mermaids
“Amazing with beautiful visual art.
‘Nothing extraordinary is ever done out of reason or logic, but because it’s the only way for your soul to breathe.’ This beautifully written story was absolutely delightful from the first word to the last. Strength of heart and character, kindness, curiosity and bravery culminate to bring the story full circle. The imagery is beautiful and descriptive. I highly recommend it for all ages!! “
