Let’s Write a Book Together
Is done. We did it.
This novel is free to Medium subscribers.

With your membership, you’re also given the opportunity to write, and earn. Most of all, you get to take leaps of faith and discuss it with really brilliant minds who will help you. You in turn can do the same for others.
Please write books, too.
We all text message. Some are better than others some would say. That doesn’t matter. It’s about whatever generates a feeling in you. It’s subjective. You already have your distinct style. Mine is to avoid text messaging. I prefer a typewriter.
You will find at Medium, it’s pure expression. This is an organic, living being growing here so let’s do our best to nurture and preserve it. For the freedom of expression it provides.
That said:
Every page of this book was written for my children.
And every page I write, every day, is also written for my children.
Love all, Serve All. Help ever. Hurt Never.
Think well, feel well, live well.
-W.V.Carleton
