Book One · The Approachable Series
How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love AI
The leading AI tools have crossed a threshold. They are no longer the experimental toys they were three years ago. They are useful, capable, and ready for work — and a growing number of professionals are quietly using them every day to outpace the ones who haven't yet started.
This book is for everyone who hasn't yet started. It's short by design — under a hundred pages, the kind of book you can read on a flight or a Saturday morning and start using on Monday. No jargon. No textbook. No fear-mongering or hype. Just a clear, friendly path from I've heard of it to I've actually used it.
If you're intelligent, accomplished, often successful in your actual job — and quietly intimidated by AI — this is the book that was written for you.

Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok — what each one is good for, where each falls down, and how to choose. Written as if recommending power tools, not reviewing software.
A plain-English explanation of what these tools are doing, without the jargon. No equations, no computer-science vocabulary. Just the conceptual handles you need to stop being scared.
Practical, immediate uses. Email drafts, research, summaries, learning a new topic, writing copy, asking better questions. The book ends and you start using AI the next day.
Praise for Approachable AI
"I loved that it read like you speak. When I was reading the Claude chapter, it was like you were sitting there talking to me. I used ChatGPT but decided to try out Claude and I really liked it. I may switch."
Randy
"I finished reading your book, Approachable AI. It's excellent! So helpful. I did use Claude this morning on writing a Google review. I normally write them on my own, but decided to give Claude a try, and he did a really good job. I will need to try the other tools too!"
Debbie
"I loved the book. I know it wasn't really for me — I retired years ago — but I really enjoyed the stories. I read a lot of books that are filled with mistakes. There wasn't a single mistake I could find in this book. Well done."
Dennis
"You did an amazing job bringing things down to my level. The most interesting thing when reading it — I could hear you speak the words. Great job!"
Judy
"I loved the book. The Matrix moment and the cartoons were so perceptive."
Lori
"An easy read — but now I need to start implementing what I learned."

Why readers keep saying this
That isn't an accident. Approachable AI was written the way I teach — in plain language, with real client stories, and with a warm sense of humor about the technology and the people learning it.
Readers tell me the same thing again and again: I could hear you speak the words. If you've ever wanted a friend who happens to know AI to sit down across the table and walk you through it, this is that conversation in book form.
Whether you've never used AI, or you've been using ChatGPT for a year and want to know what else is out there — this is the book to read first.
