Today's Kindness: A personal journey to find a better way - Softcover

Bill Morris is a San Francisco Bay area writer and author of twelve books. One of Bill's books of which he is most proud is "Notes To a Five-Year-Old," a group of essays, fatherly observations, and advice written for his daughter when she was five. He has also published two additional books of family essays, "The Red Jacket," essays for his daughter about her mother who was lost to cancer, and "Good Morning, Ryan," a book of humor, insights, and vignettes of childhood for his second five-year-old daughter, Ryan Rosemary. His latest book, The Card Reader, is about a gypsy Tarot card reader who reads the fortunes of all who enter his shop in a human parade of the beautiful, the young, killers, poets, dancers, the rich, divorcees, and fools. Each reading has its risks and rewards, and one day a young actress enters his shop and he discovers her cards are also his own. Bill has published many magazine articles and written as a software columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle. His first nonfiction books were mainly in the computer field and he's been an acquisitions editor with Hayden Book Company, a trade computer book publisher. His first novel, Grey Goddess, about California mysticism, surfing, and the search for lost spirit, received excellent reviews and praise around the world. Surfing magazine said, "A true but comical depiction of the surfing lifestyle, Bill Morris has hit the lip with his book Grey Goddess!" Grey Goddess has sold in surfing and water-related sports stores throughout the United States and abroad. Reviewers have compared it to Way of the Peaceful Warrior, Golf in the Kingdom, and even Siddartha.
