Robert’s comments from the I Write, Therefore, I Live group.

Hi everybody. My name is Bob. I am a famous writer who packs boxes for a living. O.K. A not very famous writer who packs boxes for a living. All right, all right. Nobody ever heard of me. But I have wanted to be a writer since 4th grade when I wrote a love poem to Jo Ellen Ross and she laughed at me and threw it in the trash. That violent, insensitive act wounded me so badly that I gave up writing until the 5th grade.The truth is I have written on and off since the 5th grade, have had a few articles published, and have now reached the crowning achievement of my life. No, not packing boxes. Getting a book published. At the elevated age of 66. And it only took me 30 years to complete. You got a problem with that? I knew, when I started in the auto industry, in 1974, that I would have to write a book about the incompetent management and the lously quality that we made. So I did. O.K. so it took me 30 years to finish. I write real slow, O.K.? I hope you read it. It is called "A Savage Factory - Eyewitness to the auto industry's self destruction." But don't read it yet. It has not been released.It is not nice to read a book before it gets released. But it will be released within a couple weeks and I hope you read it.
