Children's Inspirational Story authored by Las Vegas Lawyer
This week’s installment of WHEN LAWYERS WRITE brings us to Las Vega lawyer Eric Blank. Eric's practice incudes personal Injury, business and commercial litigation, and contract drafting, negotiation and review. He is also the author of The Success of Robert Fitzgibbons.
The Success of Robert Fitzgibbons is an illustrated book that inspires and encourages people of all ages to discover and realize their dreams. The central message is “It's never too late to follow your heart.” Throughout his early life, Robert excelled in everything he was expected to do -- school, sports and his career. However, he spent his time pleasing others while never taking into account his own happiness. Even success does not bring Robert fulfillment. Through his journey, Robert Fitzgibbons shows that it is never too late to follow his heart and achieve happiness - the ultimate success.
The illustrations, done by Greg Vannoy, are based upon drawings by grade school students who were read Eric’s book as part of the Dream Program, and asked to draw scenes from it.
Eric’s book has garnered some high-powered fans. For example, Michael J. Losier, Bestselling author, Law of Attraction The Science of Attracting More of What You Want and Less of What You Don't says, "The Success of Robert Fitzgibbons" will stimulate readers to set their dreams in motion. It is an encouraging story that inspires readers to embrace who they are and to take action to follow their dreams. Children and adults reading this book will learn from its lessons it s like personal growth for the whole family!"
Eric's book touches on themes that seem to keep showing up in some of my work - that your day job does not determine your destiny. Hence my own status as both lawyer and romance writer. It really is possible to have more than one role in life, even simultaneously. Kudos to Eric for letting kids in on that concept.
