Uffish Thoughts: Essays, Insight, and Stories About Living Life

by Jeffrey James

Does every day of your life pass by in a blur? Are you ever at odds with yourself, stuck between living your best life and just trying to get things done? Have you ever chased a baby rabbit out of your living room with a broom, or elaborately staged your house to appear deserted in order to avoid speaking with a door to door salesperson? These are all real things that happen to real people, and Jeffrey James wants to talk about them.

His essays and stories uniquely blend inspiration, wit, comedy, and raw emotion in an entertaining collection about living life. He advocates slowing down, finding comforts, and celebrating the goofy side of our personalities. Uffish Thoughts takes its title from Lewis Carroll's famous nonsense poem "Jabberwocky," to which much of James' interest in writing can be attributed. Containing many pieces of new material and a few heavily-rewritten entries previously published on his bygone blog, this compilation is sure to inspire and entertain.

Refreshing, funny, relatable. Jeffrey’s writing is insightful and is a perfect mix of serious topics and lighthearted uffish thoughts.

I guess I can mark this as read. I did write it, after all. I read it about 20 times. I won't rate my own book a 5, but I hope you enjoy it, whoever you are!
