Guest Post: Book Preview

I only made it four pages in, before I stopped to write this “preview” of INTO MY FATHER’S WAKE by Eric Best.   Buy the Book

A family friend urges him to do his dream now. “Getting older has a way of making you afraid to do things and the fear will come on you unexpectedly”.

Act now. Yesterday you were 15. Tomorrow your dream will be impossible. Do it now.

What will you be afraid to do? Hope beats regret any day.. and action beats simply hoping.

One reviewer begins… “Into My Father’s Wake” records the 5000-mile solo sail of journalist Eric Best as he struggles to come to terms with a recent divorce, solitude at sea and the impact of his powerful father in his life.”

Thanks to Bryan Lowe of ShantyboatLiving.com for inviting me to share my guest posts.  In the months to come I will share an occasional post about boat building, adventures, and life with a mental illness.

ShantyboatLiving.com editor Bryan Lowe says: "I met Sanders many years ago, a fleeting acquaintance, a mere wisp of a memory after so much time gone by. In the last year we've become reacquainted again, but in such a way that made it clear I never knew him. Not at all. His emails are honest and open, and I expect much the same from his guest posts here. He's asked that I hide his name and location, and his stories will gently smudge the truth so that he can remain unseen and unknown from his somewhat troubled past... but I believe you'll find something real here." - Bryan Lowe
