Excellence

I told myself that I wouldn't do this. I wasn't going to talk about books every second post. I tried that and I just read too much to keep up. I am an avid reader ( and when I say avid, I mean AVID) and there are so many incredible authors out there with such incredible stories that there is no way I could do them all justice. I have such a deep appreciation for authors and that appreciation has only gone deeper and deeper as I break out with my own writing career. Writing is proving to be such an intense love/hate relationship. One day I'm typing four - five thousand words and the next I write ten. I have never felt such stress and such excitement.
With all that said, there ARE novels that stand out. Novels that go above that bar of excellence and volt over onto the other side. I while back I read an amazing novel by a very talented and gifted author. This author made me want to write and ever since, I have been a reading and writing fanatic. His stories don't just help pass the time, but they engage your brain and make you think of the people and life around you.
I was going to do a whole blurb on the novel and the author but I think the best thing is for you to just go check it out yourself. I want you to go read "One Step Away" by Eric Wilson. Once you have read that book, you will no exactly what I mean. The novel will speak for itself. You don't need someone else telling you how brilliant it is, go see for yourself. I don't have many followers yet but I would love for all three of you to read this novel. Honestly, it's amazing.
Enough said.
