Intro

[William]

Hi. I would like to introduce myself. I wrote "Why I Hate & Love Pickleball" which is about pickleball but really about becoming a better version of yourself as told through intimate stories of everyday people. Most non-fiction books bore me, so I allowed the emotions to drip off the page.

It is a love letter to the sport of pickleball, athletes, and all of us who have courage.

Since I published some ghostwriters and paid reviewers reached out to me. I guess they don’t like my writing. I’m proud of the work and the blood on my keyboard. Cleaning is an issue though. I do need a cleaning service.

Nice to meet you William. Thanks for sharing your work!

Hey. Nice to meet you. In my PB book, I wrote about a 35-foot dragon. I'll post a little of it. Its fun.

WIH&LPB excerpt:
At the foot of a green grassy three-hundred-foot bluff near the east side of the deep blue lake was the entrance to Dressius’ cave. All the villagers knew the cave’s location and as soon as the children were old enough, they were warned to keep a healthy distance. Dressius was small for a dragon, the runt of the litter, measuring a mere thirty feet with a wingspan of forty-five feet. What he lacked in size, however, he made up for in savagery and cunning.

Nice narrative style- I like it. Have you read the book, When Women Were Dragons? It reminded me of that a bit.

[William]

Hmmm, I have not. I like that title. Fiction?
