Articles by Glenn Stok
In addition to hundreds of articles published across 20+ niche websites, I also have a few paperback books that I wrote over the years. When you click any of the book images below, you will be taken to the respective Amazon listing. I am an Amazon Associate and earn from qualifying purchases.
My book on relationships was appropriately titled "What Was I Thinking? A Review Of Relationships". I discuss how commitment issues cause us to stay with the wrong person and make the mistake of letting the right one get away.
I give personal examples that were useful lessons for me as I look back on them now. These lessons are meant to inspire anyone who wants to settle down and get past commitment issues.
To be sure I wrote something of value, a psychologist reviewed my entire manuscript and helped me correct a few points. I mentioned him in the acknowledgements in my book.
I learned about a major difference between printed books and online publishing of articles. We can update online articles, but books in print are static, and mistakes are permanent.
I kept writing relationship topics with a lot more content in my relationship articles published online that expand on the issues discussed in my book.
I wrote this imaginative new twist on the story of Humpty Dumpty as a children’s book to entertain and give young readers something to think about, dealing with everyday life.
The story is a parody of the well-known fairy tale with visual illustrations. It covers the life of Humpty Dumpty as he sits on his wall throughout all four seasons of the year, paying little attention to planning a future for himself.
Nevertheless, he worries about the lack of support to help him recover whenever he might fall off the wall. The story teaches one to think about life and the value of considering the outcome of certain actions or inactions.
This is another children's book I wrote in 2019. It's an entertaining story for young readers to enjoy a different way of seeing things. With a creative combination of fairy tales, it offers an amusing variation to the plot. Little Red Riding Hood asks the big bad wolf to help her answer the question, “Does a falling tree make a sound if no one is there to hear it?”
The wolf tries to help her figure this out with an experiment that requires blowing down a tree. However, the two of them can’t conduct the experiment alone, so they engage the assistance of three little pigs that they find living in a nearby home in the woods.
I also published a book about my doodles (an old pastime of mine). That was my first attempt at book publishing back in 2005.
"Unconscious Doodles" was an illustrated book to show what can happen when one lets creativity come from the unconscious mind.
In the 30 years before I retired I marketed an automated business phone system that I developed, called Voice Pro, and I wrote and published its user manual for my clients.
