First Shipment of Books Arrives Today
Amazon is delivering my first shipment of books today, and I can barely contain my excitement. The truth is, I needed a little help from above to get this book published on time for St. Patrick’s Day.
"Our daughter's birthday celebration begins at 3 PM—with or without you," my wife warned as I headed out the door, on my way to the UI Stead Family Children's Hospital in preparation for the birth of my book. The notice from Amazon stating that the book release could take up to 72 hours left me unsettled. I wanted to be in my favorite prayer setting—the meditation room on the 12th floor of the children's hospital. That sacred space had been a source of great comfort during my six-week recovery from my auto accident. I promised myself I wouldn’t leave until I received word from Amazon that the book had officially launched.
Today is the perfect time to pause and express my deepest gratitude to my friends and family for the incredible outpouring of support during this book launch. The first order of business? Autographing the very first copy and sending it to the gentleman who placed the highest bid on the original 18x24 cover art. J.T. Egley generously donated the piece as a silent auction item, raising $500 for the children's hospital.
The books arrive just in time for the next fundraising drive at my day job. If you’d like to support the cause, click here to order your copy today.
Have a great day!
