I’m working on an overhaul for my book The Art of Being Human‘s sales copy on Amazon.
I need to know:
- What interests you most about it?
- Where does it lose you?
- Any lingering thoughts or questions on your mind?
Drop a comment on this post, email me, get at me on social media, whatever works. Thank you.
Let’s face it. We’re sparks of consciousness inside intricate suits of meat in a world rife with paradoxes and mysteries, riding a living rock as it rotates about through infinite space.
So like, that’s pretty weird, right?
Take a trip with philosophizing late-bloomer Andrew L. Hicks, in this memoir and explorative celebration of our human odyssey through warmth, blood, and breath.
The Art of Being Human is both deeply personal and broadly cosmic.
On the personal level, it dives into the author’s past through bite-sized stories, like dropping out of high school, coming to terms with his parents’ divorce, and finding God and the meaning of life in all the wrong places (drugs and codependent relationships).
By looking at old beliefs and limited perceptions through the lens of fresher understandings, the author attempts to alter those troubled patterns of the past, transforming them into a stabilized momentum for future growth.
On this trip, you’ll also zoom out from the personal and be invited to ponder how the individual fits into the whole of humanity, and indeed the universe itself.
Can humans get along? Is it possible to create a world without war? What is art, and why is it important? What is God, and why does it matter? Does any of this matter at all? What if we all have more in common than we think? What if we are all more different than we think? Is Queen Elizabeth a shape-shifting reptilian?
You know. Stuff like that.
This existential Megazord of a book runs the gamut of everything from extracting life lessons from video games, to diffusing common logical fallacies and unifying human perspectives across seeming-different worldviews, to the perils of love triangles, to the author’s life-time of bad hair days, and more.
If none of that interests you, I give up (for now).
