Produktinformationen zu „It’s Just a Matter of Balance (ePub)“
A heartwarming debut memoir about finding meaning in the face of loss. Garrison is a proficient writer with an inspiring story. His self-awareness and insight into disability give weight to his memoir. His sly sense of humor provides a good balance to his heavier material. The author has great talent in showing, not telling, the reader the steps of the journey and the mindset of his younger self. His choice of language is excellent, including the progressions of his fear and confidence levels as a very young man, progressing through the years. Masterful sharing of experiential detail.
