Thank you, Greg. What I would want of my readers is to love the people in their lives, read a few more books, and get regular checkups. Seriously. Do that, and we all win.

Sounds like the evening was a great one in ways that were unexpected. I am ever impressed with your openness and honesty about your life and experiences.
What if anything would you want your readers to do to honor the spirit in which you approach life…

“A lot of streams crossed last night, and it wasn’t dangerous so much as enlightening. It reminded me that while I stumble a lot, I also continue to progress. Sometimes I remember to be proud of myself, and the people around me.”

I love this, puts life, struggles and our purpose in perspective. Yours is to share through words.

To reach others through words, now and for ever.

Many of us will just never be that talented.

Thank you. I’m glad my words have helped — knowing that helps me, in turn. And watch this blog for announcements about the availability of the novella. Publishing being what it is, that will take a little while.

Looking forward to reading “Specific Gravity of Grief” and seeing how you manage to filter all this into it.

I have only been following your blog for a few months now, but have really appreciated you frankness and insight into your personal experience with cancer.

Like far too many people these days cancer has touched my family’s life. Unfortunately those affected seldom have the time, energy, or eloquence to share their experience in the way that you have.

Thank you and keep up the fight.
