I have been in the hospital for the last two weeks. Thank God I'm starting to feel more like myself.
Hope to have more news about the book soon.
Thank you all!

Production Phase
This morning, May 5, I received a phone call from Xulon. For the last two weeks I thought my book was in the "Production Phase", yet they were waiting for me to buy an editing package.
I spent two days editing the book. The computer shows where I should change a word (grammar) or fix spacing problems. Two eight hour days, I spent looking for both grammar and spaces. Anyone who works at a computer all day knows how tiring this is!
I am thankful the book is on it's way to becoming a published book.
Now I must go to change my clothes. Why? I just spilled Sobe Water on my lap!
Take Care & God Bless You!

Get to it!
Hello,
Well, I received my book back from Xulon Press. An editor wrote a 500 word report with the book's good points and the weak points.
I have started on the book's weak points which are punctuation and grammar.
I am hoping to be done before the tenth of this month! I better get to it.
I hope all of you have a great day!

Translation Button
Have you tried the Translation Button on my blog site? It's so cool! People around the world are able to read my blogs in their own language. It's crazy looking at what I wrote in another language!!!
Give it a try!
Give it a try!
Good evening,
I just finished watching, "C.H. Spurgeon, The Peoples Preacher" on dvd. What an amazing preacher even at the age of 16. I was touched deeply by Spurgeon's dedication to God and the Bible!
As I wait for Xulon Publishers to edit my book, I marvel at God and all that he has done for me and with me. In March of 2012, God change the course of my life. He wants me to work for him!
Still recovering from cancer treatments, I struggled with wanting to keep my old life. Teaching Middle School and Coaching High School Football was what I knew. Slowly and patiently He has changed my life. As long as I live, I will work for God!
I did not want to write this book! Yet, when asked about what type of cancer I had, the immediate response was, "When are you going to write a book about it?" I answered, "Well, I am only one year cancer free. I don't want to remember all that I went through!" The same response happened in year two and three of being cancer free.
Two and a half years later, the book, "Courage and Comfort. How a wise man walked through the valley of cancer and strokes", will be published sometime this year!
I found such a delightful peace in my life after writing the book! Some people might suggest that it was therapy for me. That's probably true.
Thanks for reading and may "delightful peace" fill your life!

This type of night!
Good Morning,
I believe I slept about 5 hours last night. This happened to many times as I was going through cancer treatments.
I would wake up, in the hospital, and not be able to return to my sweet slumber. A person can watch TV for only so long. Getting up and putting on my slippers, I would take hold of the pole with wheels which all the fluids were dripping into my body, and walk around the Cancer Ward. Almost sounds like a Prison Ward. I wanted to get out of that place, but there is no way out!
I was a high school football coach for many years, so the nurses and doctors would ask, "Coach, how many laps have you done?" Usually, I averaged 10 laps.
For those of you who have not step foot into a hospital, all the rooms were step up facing the outside walls. The Nurses Station is on the inside. Think of a football field, that's the Nurses Station. Where the fans sit is the hospital rooms and the space between them is the Track. I did my laps on the track of the Cancer Ward. Got it?
God asked me, "As you pass by each room, hold out your hand and say, 'Blessings.'" Every room was filled with people fighting for their life. The Cancer Ward is not a happy place.
In a little while, Nancy & I will be going to see our grandson!!
I hope and pray y'all have a great weekend!
