Did you pursue your dream? I need your story

Hi Folks,

I am writing a book about ways to get off the couch and get moving - physically, mentally and emotionally. So many of us have long given up on our dream but maybe it's time to dust them off and give them another look. Please send your story along - tell me how you took that first step towards a new path. Was there some event that got you started or maybe a person who inspired you. I want to hear it. If you would like to preview my writing style you can go to amazon.com and read a chapter from my novel entitled Threads (author Patrice St. Onge). I hope to hear from you soon.

Research for book - Viet Nam

I am doing research for a new novel and I would like to hear from Viet Nam vets and in particular African-American Viet Nam vets. I would like to know how you were treated - did the Civil Rights movement make any difference? Did you experience prejudice? If yes, what form did it take? Was there a glass ceiling in the command ranks? If you were not African-American what was your attitude towards soldiers of color?

You can comment or email me at redcanyonink@yahoo.com

Thank you
