"Running With Knives: My Geometric Path"
What Readers are saying:
This is a gem I enjoyed reading so much that I am rereading parts for a second time. Especially the Dining chapter. The meals and events described on cruise boats are so spot on-but with a twist!

Wow! 4.5 stars for this book. I captained a 42' motor boat around Cape Horn and along the Pacific Coast, yet I envy the author's time crewing on an old schooner.
Her anguish from dealing with uncaring medical providers really came through. The other stories were uplifting and one of a kind humor. I loved this book.

If you enjoyed Robert Fulghum's "UH-OH", you will be thrilled with "Running With Knives" A series of longer vignettes.
A few of the topics covered:
How realistic are cruise ship shows like "Love Boat" or "Doctor Odyssey"? Heather will take readers onboard with her dining experiences to a banquet of events that dining aficionados will appreciate.
Have you ever wondered what it is like to move from a large city to a desert environment? Does the desert emit energy or vortexes that affect your aural health? Travel brochures and realtors do not reveal what is really necessary to be aware of. Heather lists caveats to know before moving to a desert-like environment.
Have you ever wondered if there is a human side of healthcare? Heather describes her intense realities of trauma care.
See "Epi-Blogue" for an update on "A Second Cocktail?"; a new story "Decadent Affairs" from the Dining chapter; a new short for "Work Off Those Calories!"; and an update on "Electromagnetism".
