I am no fan of books. And chances are, if you're reading this, you and I share a healthy skepticism about the printed word. Well, I want you to know that this is the first book I've ever written, and I hope it's the first book you've ever read. Don't make a habit of it.
I am generally not a big fan of books, and I believe many readers share my skepticism about the value of the written word. I want to be honest with you and let you know that this is the first book I have ever written, and I hope it will be the first one you read.
However, I encourage you not to make reading books a regular habit if you feel the same way I do. This book represents a new experience for me, and I hope it offers something meaningful to those who choose to explore it.
