Paul said...

That's really kind of you, Collin - we will miss Atlanta and all our friends here, but we're excited about our move to Charlottesville. You'll have to visit!

Paul,
First off congrats to you!! Last year I was working for an insurance company and went to a book store for an enrollment. The book store had several shelves of books and other items they let me go through and take what I wanted for free. Among those items was your book One More Theory About Happiness (an uncorrected proof) which honestly sat on my shelf until last week, probably a good year. Not because it didn't interest me I am just not a reader, couldn't tell you the last time I actually finished a book. One night for some reason I picked up your book and could not put it down! I read it in 4 days which is unheard of for me! I really enjoyed it and admire you! Thank you so much for sharing your life with me!
