A Life Worth Living - A Story Worth Telling

In this unique take on the autobiographical genre, life isn't a chronological tale to be told from beginning to end but rather a bouquet of flowers randomly picked over the course of six decades and assembled over several months.

Inspired by memoir-writing courses at the college where he served as dean, Morgan Scott Phenix decided that his story was worth telling. The result is an assortment of short reflections and candid stories that work together to paint a vivid portrait of a life from childhood to retirement, and beyond.

Rather than a chronological story told from beginning to end, you'll see a selection of threads and patterns that have been woven into the fabric of Phenix's life over the years-the influence of his family, his relationships and marriages, his travels, jobs and commitments, and ultimately his unwavering faith in God. And just in case you find yourself inspired to pen your own life story while reading this thoughtful memoir, you'll find tips and hints inside for putting together and publishing your very own autobiographical work. Phenix firmly believes that "every" life is worth living and "every" story is worth telling, and that includes yours, too
