Very inspiring. I was planning to look at his Web site to get an update on him. So sorry to hear he passed away. His words will help many. As an author, death is not in my face, the way it was with Randy, but we never know what our future holds. My late husband and I sold everything and traveled full-time in an RV beginning at age 47. I'm so glad we did. Bill would not have had a chance to do many of the things we were able to do and that he had dreamed of doing. He passed away at age 59.

I applaud HCI for keeping their books in print, which I know wasn't a decision based on profitability. We now have technology (POD) to give these writers bibliophilic immortality. Their work is timeless. The audience is out there. How do you reach that audience without support from retailers or a marekting budget from the publisher?
