Life is Sometimes Funnier Than Fiction: True Life Short Stories and Poems Deborah Olsen

"I think that laughter is the best medicine that we have, especially with all the problems that we have to endure these days! That should include being able to laugh at yourself comfortably! We all do things that at the time they are happening, may not seem real funny, but why be embarrassed about it? We are human and make human mistakes! Nobody is perfect, so why not laugh about it? That is why I wrote this book, so that the people who read it might have a good laugh about some of the funny things that have happened in my life! Plus, as far as the poems go, I have always enjoyed inspirational poems, especially my very favorite writer in the whole world, Helen Steiner Rice, she is great! She always makes you feel as though she is writing her poems especially for you! Some make you happy, some make you cry, but they always seem to hit a personal note, and that is an awesome talent to have!" Deborah Lorraine Olsen
