I am delighted with the core ideas you present in Pay It Forward. What an inspiring life focus you have! Did you know that pay it forward is the active side of a core concept that is represented by the word forbearance? Forbearance is the passive side of the concept. These two words when taken together are more than either by itself.
Catherine Ryan Hyde
I don't know anything about the concept you describe here, no. Can you tell me more? Thanks for your comment.

I have read Take Me With You and I am almost done with When I Found You. Both books are about men who are NOT biological fathers but are more fatherly and wise and wonderful than their "son's" real dads. Do you have a model for these empathetic characters? Both August Schroeder and Nathan McCann are men I truly admire.

Thanks again for all of the wonderful books. My wife and I have listened to every book available on audio. Are their plans to publish audio versions of any of your books that are not presently available on audio? We wanted to find out if we're going to need to read them or if audio of some of them may be coming. Thanks, Hank
