This is Bob Cornell speaking and it has become my current responsibility to tell you a little about myself.
I am very handsome , in tremendous shape and slightly narcissitic.
I have been writing for almost ten years now and loathe the process as there is too much work.
I am married to a woman who has put up with my negative traits (which are few) for 46 years.
Heaven has sent us two daughters who are great. I am called Grandpa by three smaller people, of which the consistency is one girl and two that have been blessed with the ability to write their names in the snow.
In a completely serious mode, I find that the publishing
industry is filled with too much negativity which unfortunately channels authors to the vanity publisher.
So far I have written 5 books all in the genre of historical non-fiction.
I enjoy writing humor but, it is extremely demanding
Nonetheless, I do find writing intriging and you might say it has become my passion. It does represent hard work, but,and I know you have heard this before, I love it.
My other passion is inventing of which I do hold seven patents and have approx. 35 projects.
I am retired from my former business which was janitorial maintenance.
Many thanks,
Bob Cornell

Oh! The remembrance of our college days.

Many events that occurred during our less traumatic time of life and more youthful days immediately "pop" into our memories.

-"Wait a minute, did I understand you correctly? Did you say less traumatic?"-

"Those days may have been less traumatic to you but, my college days were literally filled with trauma from sun-up to sunset.
