    About this ebook

    Write an essay every month about pursuing your dreams? Heck, it was a struggle every day just for me to keep believing in mine.
    And yet, that is how this book began.
    I began writing an essay every month about pursuing your dreams for the fine folk at Recovering The Self and an amazing thing happened: I felt it help me pursue mine!
    I hope the essays in this book, encompassing the first year of essays in Recovering The Self (along with a little bonus material), help you get a little closer to yours.

    Ken La Salle

    Author and Playwright, Ken La Salle grew up in Santa Ana, California and has remained in the surrounding area his entire life. He was raised with strong, blue collar roots, which have given him a progressive and environmentalist view. As a result, you'll find many of his stories touching those areas both geographically and philosophically. His plays have been seen in theaters across the country and you can find a growing number of books available online. Find out more about Ken on his website at www.kenlasalle.com.
