Introducing... Bobby Paul, New Author!!

So, there’s this guy named Bobby, who was a year behind me in school. I knew him, but we were in different social circles and not in the same grade, so we didn’t hang out. But he was nice (I knew that) and would say "hi" if someone said "hi" to him (which I'm sure I did in passing). I also knew he was a “class clown” (a funny guy, really). Years and years later (I won’t age him or myself by saying how many years later!) we connected on Facebook, and then I connected with his amazing wife, Heather (who also went to the same school as me but in a different grade). She’s the nicest person and purchases my books at book signings. So, we also became Facebook friends.

Then there’s one of my best friends, someone I’ve known for a LONG time because we went to school together and hung out and we chat on FB messenger nearly every day. Her name is Susan. Susan is also a friend of Bobby’s, and she found out he was writing a book, so guess what she did? She referred him to ME because I am an editor and have a publishing company, Get It Write Publishing Company.

Bobby messaged me, and the rest is history!

His book is called Worry Free Zone, Unveiling the Warrior Within. See, Bobby had leukemia and he fought a hard battle… but he WON that battle. His support network and, first and foremost, God, were with him during the battle. His book is dedicated to his daughter, Lia, who is a sweet girl (and also funny like her daddy!). When I edited and proofed this book, I felt so many emotions. One was nostalgia because I grew up in the same small town that Bobby did and knew almost the same people, so when he mentioned places or people, it brought back memories of high school. I also laughed (hey, he’s a funny guy) and teared up—not just the parts about him being sick.

This is definitely a book you’ll want to read. It’s a true story that Bobby tells about his life, growing up in a small town, and the battle he fought and won. You can download it from Amazon or order a hard copy. Please leave this amazing new author a positive Amazon and Goodreads review!


Excerpt from the book: 
Never, ever take anything you have in your life for  granted, because trust me, even those small things in your life are a blessing. What you consider a convenience, others would consider a luxury. Fresh air, hot showers, warm meals, and clothing are all luxuries. There are far too many people in this world who are not fortunate enough to experience them. If you are fortunate enough to experience the luxuries of life, try to help those who are not so fortunate.
