 Our Hawaiian Cookbook Memoir ...won First Prize in an International Competition. The judges explained that they had never seen such "fine writing in a cookbook." It is a real cookbook, not a recipe book; that is, it teaches you how to prepare the recipes. And there are 250 of them representing all six of the ethnic tables of Hawai’i (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, European and, Hawaiian). No need to have a separate cookbook for each cuisine. Our Authors ...have grown up in the Islands or have lived the major portions of their lives here. They bring to their writings, whether about boats and sailing, Hawaiin Regional Cuisine, or hula wahine and Hawaiian culture, a depth that allows the reader to be confident of the authenticity of their material. In addition to ...the authors Diamond Hawai’i publishes, we also feature other Hawaiian authors and playwrights whom you may now wish to experience. Wayne Moniz is an award winning writer who works out of Maui and appeals to many who may remember the islands of an earlier day when great white ships brought movie stars and other interesting personalities to our sandy shores.

And Bill has been at his art a long time. (Click for more ...) |

The PKO (Protect Kaho`olawe Ohana) had set up, in the 1980's, a number of accesses to that island to restore the habitat and aquafers and, at the same time, educate visitor/volunteers about this special place. My name was submitted through a couple of sponsors and I took the opportunity to visit it. Upon return to Maui, I was encouraged by my Hawaiian colleagues to write about the experience. The result was my first effort - "Still Born - Na Mele o Kaho`olawe."
