The feeling of holding a book in your hand that has your picture on the cover is difficult to put into words. It’s something about the weight of the paper, lined with beautifully-formatted text that’s all about you – words that say what you want to say, that express your thoughts and your ideas. It’s at that moment when you realise your story has become something real, something physical, and something that will always be there, something that will extend beyond your life and into the lives of your children, grandchildren, and so on – far into the future. That’s when you see it: this is your legacy, this is your immortality on the page.
