Vince Helps A Mother And Son Deal With Dyslexia

I saw your interview with Glenn Beck. I have a son with dyslexia.

We live in a small town and I had so many struggles with the school system. I home school this smart, imaginative young man. 

I was so inspired by your admission of dyslexia and your struggle that I taped the program so my son could watch.

Before he saw your interview I had trouble getting him to write anything. He would tell me what to write but his fear of looking or feeling dumb kept him from that. He will now write things after watching the program and he is a good story teller. He is going to work this summer at writing stories and he loves the subject matter of military and planes, tanks, combat...

It is amazing to me how one person's admission can inspire someone and you have inspired my son.

Battling To See Who Will Read All Of Vince's Novels First

The attached photo is of Lieutenant Colonel Miles Armstrong (L) and Chief Warrant Officer Scott Morgan (R) of I Corps, United States Forces - Iraq.

The photo was taken on the west side, third floor balcony of the Al Faw Palace, Camp Victory, Victory Base Complex, Baghdad, Iraq. The Joint Visitor's Bureau can be seen in the background. This is where VIPs and dignitaries stay when visiting the Corps Headquarters.

Miles and I were in the middle of reading W.E.B. Griffin's Presidential Agent series. He was a book ahead of me. While I was waiting on him to finish, I needed something else to read. I stumbled on 'Act of Treason' by accident. I found it one of our many book bins among the thousands of books that we have here. Being that I'm a big fan of Daniel Silva's Israeli spy novels, I read the synopsis and thought this might be a book that I'd enjoy reading. Was I ever right!

I was hooked from the first chapter. By the second chapter I had ordered the first three in the series from Amazon. After reading 'Treason', I put Griffin on hold and started from the beginning with 'Term Limits'. When I finished that one, I gave it to Miles and told him that he had to read that book.

Needless to say, he was hooked too. We've blown through the entire ten book series in about 5 months.

We're looking very forward to reading 'Honor'. The battle will be who gets to read it first.

How An 82-Year Old Father Started Reading Again

Hi Vince,

Just a quick note to let you know that I read all of your books this past year. But that is not the real story.

The real story is that my father, Joe, who is 82 years old, has not read a book for entertainment since he was a child.  I introduced him to Term Limits last Autumn, and he loved it!

Since then, both he and my mother, Dolores (soon to be 80) have read all 11 of your books and are eagerly awaiting your next (as am I).

Just wanted to let you know that your stories and writing style spans all ages!

Keep up the great writing!
