In Culturally Different, Janice Chapman is a successful Canada business woman who has worked hard to get to where she is – COO of the company she works in. She is unexpectedly and unduly fired from her job by the Board of Directors in an effort spearheaded by one of them.

Unsure of what to do next, Janice decides to go to Thailand to find herself and define what she truly wants in life. While there, she falls in love. As she gets to know Thai culture and her new boyfriend, she becomes involved in a social activist movement. This leads to complications for everyone involved especially Janice and her new boyfriend.

Will Janice find what she is looking for? Will the activist movement serve its purpose in obtaining social and economic equality for Thailand’s people? Or will things continue to become more complicated?

Jennifer-Crystal Johnson, author of the upcoming novel, Fibers, says, “Culturally Different is action-packed and meticulously thought out. It has it all: conflict, romance, resolve, action, philosophy, and intrigue. The novel’s plot is intricately woven to provide the reader with days (if not weeks) of entertainment.”
