My family made a treasured discovery years after my father died. We found his private World War II journal in the bottom of a box of old papers.

Inside we found the earnest words of a boy becoming a man, a soldier fighting for his life and his country. We found the essence of who my father was.

"Why I Am Fighting" is a compilation of excerpts in his own words.

My dad loved to sail and was a fine storyteller. I compiled this book one sailing story at a time by asking him to share his adventures. He wrote in longhand without knowing I was creating a book. I added each story along with photos and nautical maps with self-publishing tools.

"A Sailor's Life" became his Father's Day gift and our sailing family legacy.

"I haven't completed the book yet, but the process of compiling my memoir so that I can leave a legacy has been so motivating. I find myself living a more exciting life so that I have more to tell my grandchildren in the book. I'm far from the end, but starting now, after I took your workshop, made compiling these memories so much more exciting, I think, than if I had waited until I was older."
