As an author, Dr. Les Wright Jr.’s passion for personal development shines through every word he writes. His unique approach has inspired countless individuals to live on their own terms, pursue their dreams with unwavering passion, and make a positive impact in their professional and personal lives and in their communities. He reminds his readers that courage isn’t about how fast you run or how high you jump—it’s about believing in yourself, even when things seem complicated. Never stop believing, never stop dreaming, and never stop being yourself.

Dr. Wright, the author of Coaching From My Wheelchair: Tips, Tidbits, Tools, and Strategies for Improving Your Personal and Professional Self-Development, shares personal stories and practical advice. Published in December 2023, the book offers actionable strategies for goal setting, cultivating a positive mindset, increasing self-awareness, and promoting behavioral change. Readers will be motivated to “crush obstacles with a can-do attitude” and to develop routines that foster consistency and impact.

In 2026, Dr. Wright published a companion interactive workbook that helps readers move beyond reading about personal growth and begin applying meaningful strategies to their everyday lives. Through guided reflection, coaching questions, practical exercises, relatable case studies, and personal action plans, readers are encouraged to examine their thoughts, behaviors, goals, strengths, habits, and communication styles. The Coaching From My Wheelchair Workbook and Reflection Study Guide was created to help you revisit the lessons, ask deeper questions, and turn what you’ve learned into meaningful action.

Additionally, Dr. Wright is the author of two engaging children’s books: Peter Possum and His Friends in the Great Oak Tree Maze Adventure and Discovering the Magic Hidden Within You. Each book features relatable characters and gentle life lessons that build confidence, kindness, and perseverance while sparking curiosity, empathy, and self-confidence in early and young readers. Dr. Wright is also the author of Peter Possum and His Friends: Coloring & Activity Book, a companion to Peter Possum and His Friends in The Great Oak Tree Maze Adventure. This interactive coloring and activity book encourages young readers to continue the adventure through bold coloring pages, simple mazes, dot-to-dots activities, and matching exercises. These activities help children develop fine motor skills, introduce early learning concepts, and build confidence while spending more time with Peter and his friends. The activities promote perseverance, creativity, and teamwork in an engaging, hands-on way. Dr. Wright is scheduled to release his third children's book this fall, which is a sequel to the Peter Possum and His Friends series.
