About the Author: Ms. Jenkins. Late 1960s. Kindergarten. I remember like yesterday listening to her stories. She asked us to make stuff like animals, objects, and people. One time I made a fish. We told stories about what we made. I don't remember the exact stories but I do remember being a little kid who was fascinated about all of this. Stories about people, places, and things would continue to fascinate me. Always. Everywhere. It's laughable! At school, at home, and at work I would be called the guy who loved people, travel, and exploration. I always had a story and always encouraged others to tell theirs. What I found was that no matter where I went, who I spoke with and listened to, and what I observed the point was that there is a common element in every person, every animal, every thing, and every where. What is it? It is life. Life. Growth. Change. Life is awesome. Life is good. Life is it. I became inspired to write about it, about life. Fipsila became the vehicle. People. Animals. Nature. The Fipsila story is at Fipsila.com. There are books for children, teenagers, young adults, and adults -native English speakers and those who speak English as a second language. Fipsila books, games, and services are all about the common thread that link us to each other. In every culture and in every person there is life. What's your story? Who's Bill?
