Celebration

How can this have happened? I promised myself that I would try to write a post at least every other day, but I have failed. One thing I realize, however, is not to get after myself and worry all day. Each of us must do the best we can and leave it at that. Last night was exciting. My sweet friend, Todd, who is visiting me from Scottsdale, and I went to dinner with our friends Marilyn and Don from the city. I took Marilyn a copy of FINALLY AWAKE and she was absolutely thrilled. In fact the dinner became a celebration for having published my second book. Such sweet people, a connection I don't want to break. Marilyn should write herself. She always says she wants to, but she does nothing about it. Who makes the final push that puts us on the way to a project? Providence? Tell me. Think about it and let me know.

Lost City Z

It's time to make another connection. This time I want to connect you to a sensational book, a true story about Percy Fawcett who was looking for the lost city of Z way down in the Amazon. This occurred at the turn of the century and on. David Grann who wrote this fascinating book writes for The New Yorker.The research he did boggles the mind! I was stunned that so many people kept getting involved in looking for this so-called city especially after Fawcett never returned from his last trip. The title of the book is THE LOST CITY OF Z. Read it an let me know what you think. Because I love South America the story particularly spoke to me. The ending makes one feel differently about the theory that the forerunners of the indians in the western hemisphere came over the Bering Straits. Let me know what you think.
