PROGRESS REPORT on Biography for FRED CHESHIRE

PROGRESS  REPORT  on  Biography for FRED  CHESHIRE

  I’m excited!  The archery kids – the computer kids – those who hated math and loved the income tax drills – are sending stories about Mr. Cheshire, their favorite coach and teacher.

  Fred’s biography will be divided into two books --- The first part, including the fantastic messages from his students, will take place from his early life to the day of the accident.  I’m still debating which title is more appropriate - “Fred’s Story” or “Worries Never Happen”.  The publication date is several months away.  I’m hoping for more pictures and there is still a ton of editing to do. 

   Then it will be time for serious get-down-to-business for the next book - “There’s Nothing I Can’t Do,” – where the story starts with that change-of-life day June 7, 1977. 

   If Fred added something to your life during these years, please let me know at Mimar102@cox.net.

SCHOLARSHIP  FUND

We reached our goal!  Scholarships will be awarded this fall to two Glendale College students who need help in the English language with their studies.  These are the students that Fred tutored in the years before his life was cut short.  The $10,000.00 seed money is continuing to grow and making money for future scholarships.  Because of the contributions of so many good people the Dr. Fred Cheshire Scholarships will continue as long as there are learning institutions and students who need help. 

DRAGAAN  PRINCESS

“The Lifes and Loves of Myrt-ty-Ky-Ly Dragaan Princess” will still be available on Kindle and Amazon (preview www.taswos.com)  but I’ve put her on the back burner for marketing.   Very little feedback has come through for the story of Louey and her good friend, the Dragaan Princess.  I haven’t figured out if: (1) you don’t have the time or money to buy it; (2) you’ve been postponing telling me how much you enjoyed it; or (3) or you haven’t figured out why I wrote it.

WHAT’S AROUND THE CORNER?

Vacation time – ten days with bestest sister Nancy – meant talking about ‘what is to come.’ The scary age of NINETY-ONE is creeping up on me very quickly.  Will the pain doctors give relief if the knife is used?  Or do I have to accept and adjust?  Will I need to leave my wonderful sunshiny Phoenix patio for the rainy day comfort of Beaumont?  Stay tuned to this station for next year’s installment of “Living Life to the Fullest.”

  Until my next Blog . . . Stay happy.
