The Dharma Frog recently said, "Kissing the frog to get a prince, is a waste of a perfectly good frog." And I couldn't agree more, but I asked him what was the deeper message here. He explained it something like this; be thankful for what you have and don't wish it was something more. This is sound advice. So how does this all relate to writing my books, you ask... Good question. I could wish to be a J.K. Rowling or a Kermit the Frog, with all their fame and fortune. And, I must admit, there are days when I kinda do wish I had all that. But, realistically, I am Irwin. I write fun and educational books for kids, and although I'll probably never be hugely successful, win prizes for my writing, or get my own TV show, I am happy with the work that I produce. And that's good enough for me.
