Plus, I don’t remember their glory days very well since they happened in the mid-1980s when I was young.

The ideas I had are:
1.) A fiction book (the plot is too long to go into here). This is my favorite idea of the three and it’s the one to which I have given the most thought.
2.) A non-fiction book about how to be a Christian in college\grad school\law school without either losing your faith or falling prey to all of the stereotypes of evangelical Christians (which was the idea that I had when I talked with the IV press guy) but unfortunately I saw that a book just like this was written in 2004…I should have started earlier.
3.) Perhaps a memoir about law school or teaching in the inner city? Might want to get some more experience in law before writing this one though.

This is so cool. You should have mentioned it today because I would have loved to talk with you about it. As a writer of sorts with all sorts of book ideas floating around in my head, I enthusiastically support people who are actually putting the rubber to the road and moving forward with a book project. Please keep us posted with your progress and developments!

This post actually reminded me that several years back at Cedar Campus I met the editor\head honcho of IV Press. Being a young and brash college student, I went up to him and asked him what one needed to do in order to get published by IV Press. He told me pretty much exactly the same types of things as you need to do. I guess he wasn’t just trying to blow me off and get back to enjoying the great barbeque that we were having on the shores of Lake Huron that evening!

It was really fun hanging out with you and Dave today! What a great, unexpected blessing!
