My problem as of late is that I simply can not keep up with the pace that life is presenting but in the same breath, it’s too difficult to hand something off to someone who I don’t have a history with.
A few weeks back, Lin and I were finishing up a non-stop loop up in Shenandoah Valley when we stopped ✋️by to see 👀 our long-time friends, Barb and Pappy Meade, as the final detour.
Pappy asked for a small favor as he was looking to get the trophy 🏆from his Fantasy football league he runs down to John Galle in Salem.
I smiled 😃 at the thought of having a reason to cross paths with young John Galle once again. I had a front row seat 💺to the growth of John, so yes, I scooped up the trophy and headed south.
The seventh of the seven books 📚 is going to be a non-functional, faith-based book about God using his powers to help a challenged individual reach remarkable levels in life. There are no spoilers here, but everything has to fall into place perfectly, including the need to finish the fifth and six books before turning 100% of the focus towards the ultimate prize.
Nancy Sorrell has a completed book five, it just needs to be produced. John Galle, pictured above with the youngest of his three kiddos, has agreed to take the handoff on book six !!!!
Diamonds 💎 are a Girls Best Friend and the Fellas like them too : Fifty years of feel-good stories that have been collected by me during life’s journey.
The idea 💡 of this book was hatched in the brain 🧠 of a 12 year old underachieving student was instructed to read 📚 a book by one of his teachers.
Mac Davis ( not the country singer, different one ) wrote a book titled ” Great Sports Humor ” and when you aren’t the brightest cookie in the box, it seemed like an easy read.
Mac just collected a series of stories, which had no natural ties to them and created a fun read. My stories are all feel good stories about people and events that I’ve been blessed to encounter over the decades.
Galle provided the cover photo 📸 for Book #2 (Strasburg High School )) and later penned one of the better reads about my life that has been written.
Carroll County High School, Page County High School, West Virginia Tech University are the three lead categories, with the fourth one being Editors choice.
Now, it should make sense why I couldn’t just pass this off to an unknown quantity.
John Galle is OneofUs.Care person, through and through, and I’m so proud to know him.
There is no rush to get this done as a young, hard-working father of three doesn’t need added pressure.
The fresh out of college writer is all grown up now and is an editor !
