How it all started…
Battling two life threatening illnesses at the same time is a very dark place to start a personal quest. But writing a book describing the lessons learned from those dark places and clearly marking out some truly effective paths for fellow travelers is no small task either.
Greg Ritscher had often been asked by his friends to write a book about his experiences. And with his active involvement in the Parkinson’s Disease community, loads of people were always coming up to him after hearing his presentations and workshops wanting more from him. He also realized he had to satisfy a deep internal desire within himself to share his heart in a larger way.
What happened next…
Of course Greg’s wife, Phylis, was his biggest fan and supporter from the get-go. She had seen the emotional changes in him over the years, and saw he needed to do something more; he needed to do something big. Greg’s daughters were his lifelong cheerleaders, and they all wanted to get in on his next adventure, too!
By the time Greg started earnestly scribbling his way through piles of note pads and typing away on his tiny laptop, he had a multitude of friends, family, and even some well-known experts contributing amazingly insightful pieces to his project. They were all writing from their hearts about what they saw were the biggest take-aways from a life lived well in spite of personal disasters.
Taking it to the next level…
But none of them could have predicted the way in which their little project kept evolving into something bigger and bigger. In less than a year, Greg had not only survived the manuscript writing and editing process — he also collected and wove together all of the contributors’ various narratives. And to top it all off, he even sponsored a professional editorial photo shoot for his collaborators as a ‘thank-you’ for all of their incredible help.
Now, their final step is to get this book into the hands of as many excited readers as they can!
If you have personal challenges weighing you down, or if you just really love it when self-determined people come together and make their own way in life, then you have got to check out their incredible (not-so-little) project!
