Thirty Days in November

Thirty Days in November is the fifth book from Bob Hocking.Challenging himself to write thousands of words in a month, at a pace of more than a new essay each day, Bob created dozens of rough drafts during two separate months of November. He returned to those efforts, revising and editing and proofreading, and ultimately brought together the thirty essays that create this narrative journey.As the world rapidly moves toward inflatable lawn decorations for every conceivable celebration, pumpkin flavored anything, and technology that's updated quite literally as you are using it, the investment of just a moment to watch it all passing by can offer some refreshing perspective.Bob navigates around thoughts that includes the starting points of holiday decorating, the enjoyment of seasonal delights, and the frustrations of e-mail. He ponders the interruptions of his partners-in-procrastination, Molly and Gus. And he finds that cherished traditions can offer a pretty sweet sense of family and community.
