Current Book:
"Moonlight King"
"The Moonlight King is a true account of the power of the human spirit. What Derek went through... to come out of it as such a being of love and light astounds me and touches my soul. His book, and he, himself, encourage me to be the best person I can be. I was truly surprised that he has never written before, as this book is so masterfully done. He tells his story with such color, that it is often hard to read. Yet, at the same time, he punctuates it with his humorous observations that sometimes caused me to laugh out loud. Please read the Moonlight King and prepare for your life to change."
