Last Friday, my son and daughter took me to Maggiano's for my birthday because they know it's one of my favorite restaurants in Richmond. While we were there, a distinguished gentleman came to our table and presented us with his latest book.
We quickly discovered that the author is a Virginia native. This is his second book, and he is in the process of writing another. He and my daughter worked for the same company. My son told the author that I am an online writer who would be delighted to write a review of his book.
About "Facing Ernest"
The complete title is "Facing Ernest: Finding Our Path to Inner Peace and Freedom." It is a powerful 78-page book that was published on May 31, 2024. Porter uses examples from his own life as a testimony to encourage others to make changes in their lives so they can start to walk in the newness of life, a life based on their dreams and goals.
Porter said:
"There is no greater casualty than not living the dream inside you."
Porter dedicated the book to two women in his life:
his dear mother, Mary Porter, who shaped him into the person he is today
his beloved wife, Lynda Porter, for her unyielding support and belief in him
Ernest said about his book:
"Facing Ernest" ignited a fire that drives him forward, propelling him on a transformative journey. With fervor and unwavering determination, he embarks on a courage mission to peel back the layers of his layers of his existence, eager to reveal him in a new, radiant light."
