He spoke to his parents of nothing else. One night, while Jake slept quietly, his father drained the backyard pool and worked through the night on a secret project. The next day, Jake found a miniature city constructed across the bottom of the re-filled pool, covered by a layer of plexiglass and complete with small plastic cars and citizens. He ecstatically received swim-goggles and a new shiny red cape from his father. As he swam over the tiny metropolis, he felt like a superhero soaring over the city he was destined to protect. On that day, Jake, with a huge smile on his face, thought only of his epic flight. Looking back on that day thirty years later, Jake, with a huge smile on his face, thought only of his father In addition to the short story, I would also like to add that, having read and loved all four of Don's books, I am a huge fan. As for the interview, I found Don's story about choosing writing as a profession to be very compelling. It's encouraging to me because sometimes I am unsure about pursuing writing as a career (I am a writing major in college). It's comforting to know that God can make our paths clear in His timing. Thanks you so much for an opportunity to win the book! Mon, 31 Aug 2009 20:40:29 +0000 http://michaelhyatt.com/2009/08/book-notes-interview-with-donald-miller.html#IDComment32707555
