Journey to a Best Seller

 Please allow me to share a personal disclaimer before you read any further.  I am not nor have I ever been a best selling author.  Not yet.  Please humor me as I dream big.  My head is spinning from all the advice my brain has been absorbing about writing.  Some experts say, "Write about what you know."  Others preach, "Go out on a limb and write about what you don't know."  Where am I?  I'm writing about my mistakes and my shortcomings.  There seems to be an abundance in this area of my life.  According to Amazon, my new audio release, "Live Long and Prosper," is #40 in new releases under the aging and longevity category.  If you've been following my stories, this happens to be the area of my life where I was most likely to fail according to earlier medical exams.  It's rather impossible to be a best selling author if you're dead.  

The credit for my health turnaround goes to my cousin, Dr. John Mulligan, one of many doctors in my family tree who took an interest when my mom called to tattle on me for my off the charts blood pressure readings.  Many doctors will admit that nutrition is rarely addressed in medical school.  I can tell you from my personal experience that my good health comes from my food choices.  There may not be any profit when patients no longer need prescription pills. 

How about you?  How would you rate your health on a one to ten scale?  While you're measuring, how about your financial fitness?  This happens to be another area of my life that needed intensive care.  Lastly, how do you feel about your spiritual well being?  If you would like to improve your scores related to food, finances, and faith, why not help an aspiring writer out?  If you don't really like to read, give "Live Long and Prosper" two hours of your commute time and listen while you drive.  I hired narrator James, one of the best in the business, to share my story with you.  Your kind review after reading or listening will help me reach others who may be seeking to improve their health and wellness scores.  If you happen to see my mother, please tell her that her son's last blood pressure reading was 113/76 without medicine.  In fact, when I visit my physician, his staff always seems miffed that a 64yr old patient does not take any prescription pills.  Thank you for visiting today.  Have a great day.
