Greetings Dear Reader,
I promised to suggest some things to do with your time. According to the Pew
Research Center, in 2019 roughly a quarter of U.S. adults (27%) say they
haven’t read a book in whole or in part in the past year, whether in print,
electronic or audio form. As an author,
this really hurts my feelings. This means
that for one-quarter of you, there is a zero percent chance of you buying my
books.
Since we are to shelter in place as much as possible over the
next fortnight, I would suggest that you take advantage of Amazon’s amazing
delivery options. You can order many
books to journey through and catch up on your reading time. This link will take you to my Author Page on Amazon and this one will take you to My
Publisher.
What is more important, is that you read. Reading feeds the mind and nurtures the
soul. It takes our focus off of the
problems and allows us to escape from worry.
Books do not have commercials or news breaks. One can dive into a world where anything can
happen. In Star Trek: The Next Generation,
Guinan, the Enterprise bartender says, “Books can take you places a Starship
can never go.” Ponder that for a moment.
Some of you are thinking “but I do not read books.” No one does a good thing until they do
it. Your past need not be your
future. There are great books out there
that can take you on adventures whilst you sit in your comfy chair and enjoy
your favorite beverage.
Books change us. They
teach and guide. They reward and
warn. If you dare you should read
more. I know I am going to do so. I would prefer that all of you buy my books
and read them. I care more that you
read. As always, I would suggest that
you share your thoughts and questions with me, but if you get lost in a book
and forget to, that is a great reward.
You give me more insight when we share our book adventures together.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn

writer who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a
homeowner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
