It was the summer of 1991 and I had a dream where my grandfather explained to me that he was going to die. Upon awakening the next morning, I received a phone call that Grandpa had had a stroke and he died shortly thereafter. My grandfather and I had such a great relationship, I believe that he wanted me to know personally that he was going to die and that things would be okay. While I was grief-stricken by his death, I was in awe of my dream. To help me with the grieving process, I started to write down stories/escapades that Grandpa and I shared. I finally took the leap and made it into a memoir. My book... "My Hero, My Ding, A Memoir of a Girl and her Grandfather" was just released on the market December 7, 2010. If it weren't for this dream from my grandfather, I probably would never have realized the dream of becoming an author!
