is 60% done with One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest: The John C. Reilly narration of this audiobook is really well done. The story is amazing. It is such an old story at this point I already somehow know the ending though I don't think I've ever watched the movie. I'm not sure how I know what will happen. The last time I tried to read this I think I quit when I wasn't even half way through. This audio narration makes the book riveting, for me.

| I recently read The Letters of Vincent Van Gogh and wanted to follow up with a book about Jo, who was Vincent's sister-in-law. This novel is only half about Jo... it is a dual timeline novel so chapters alternated between Jo and Emsley, a thoroughly ...more | |
“I believe the greatest pleasure in writing is in the progressive artistry of it. Each project is an attempt to do better than before - to produce a worthy work of art - something having meaning not only for the writer but also for those who may share the experience of it later. I treasure the hope of producing something that will make a difference in the world - some kind of positive change.”

“Anything that dims my vision of Christ, or takes away my taste for Bible study, or cramps my prayer life, or makes Christian work difficult, is wrong for me, and I must, as a Christian, turn away from it.”

“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.”
