As someone who also one day wants to bring a book into the world, this was a great read! "The flow" is certainly something magical but it is amazing how God has designed life to interrupt our ambitions. Till We Have Faces is SO good and I really need to read it again. I'd love to talk C.S. Lewis with you sometime! I don't know too many folks who've read Till We Have Faces.

I have been listening to your book slowly on your podcast, but I am really excited to read it on the page and see your illustrations!

Paul, thanks so much for this! I love the way you put it that God has designed life to interrupt our ambitions. I have really been feeling that in the last few weeks, trying to surrender to the time it is going to take instead of my dream timeline. I really enjoyed Till We Have Faces. I listened to the version on audible, and it was extremely well-done. I think the passage at the end where the title is referenced is extremely profound. "How can we face them, until we have faces..." I have been thinking about finding a C.S. Lewis book list in choronlogical order and just reading all the way through... I'm sure it would take me a couple of years, but I think that would be a really cool way to experience his books. Thanks for your encouragement, Paul. I spent the day in your mom's house today. One of my very favorite places. Take care! Hope to see you there one of these days.
