Nearing Completion of My Next Book --- FARTHER ON

Karrie and I are faithfully being safe, hoping for an end to COVID 19.


My friends and readers, 

The new book is getting near completion.  It won't be too long, page number wise.  But it feels right at just over 125 pages.  I have written about the ensuing years since the publication of the first, I WILL GO ON.  It was a chance for me to reflect on some of the changes that have taken place, such as the DBS surgery and the tracheostomy experience.  Also, I have had an opportunity to consider how I have truly lived on longer than would have been anticipated with a parkinsonian-plus condition such as mine.  I am excited to share it with all of you and I hope to be able to encourage others who are going through similar brain diseases or experiences with a tracheostomy or feeding tube.  I feel my little book will be an inspiration to others who are not seriously ill, as well.  It is a chance to share my personal insights that occurred to me during my near death experience and what I have struggled with subsequently.  Finally, the things these difficulties have helped me to gain are priceless and worth trying to put into words.

Karrie is going through my rough draft now, helping to edit and looking with what I hope is a critical eye for ways to improve my grammar and punctuation in the document I have been writing for most of a year on my MacBook.  I want her input on the content too, as my favorite editor.  She is excellent at this task!

Well, it is time to move on for today, so I just wanted to get that out there.  The book is coming this spring or summer, and I hope that you will help me spread the word.  It will likely be on Amazon by that time. 

Thanks for all you support and interest,  Dan
