My newest book, A Life Remembered, was published today. Something a little different from my previous books, this one was both challenging and genuinely fun to write.
The cover and back tell the story.
Available at Amazon Now HERE.

Just put it “A Life Remembered” on my Amazon shopping list. Steve.👍! Looking forward to reading it. That’s a pretty big task at our ages😄! I’m down to painting Abstracts for my art now…..have lost (according to son Joe) my perspective but do find it relaxing & fun to do. Most people say “Hmm…..what is that Pat?” Enjoy, enjoy, Steve! Will keep you posted once I get the book. Stay well Steve🤗!
Congratulations on publishing another book.
This one likely has many more ups than downs, which is probably a bonus for you.
It should be an amazing read.
Did you happen to include your son’s recent cross-Channel swim? I know some writers update their books at the last minute before having them published and just wanted to know if that was included. If not, perhaps a second edition will have it.
Ron: No, I didn’t put Marlin Mike’s amazing marathon swims in the book; he’s still going for the “Triple Crown” with an upcoming swim later this month from Long Beach to Catalina Island, “26 miles across the sea.” Best, Steve
Steve!

Steve, just received your book and commented on it but message came back as “failure to send” . I sent to stevehodel.com. Can you send me your new or correct email contact. Know I will enjoy reading this! 👍🤗
Finished the new book this morning. Loved it. The excerpts from your mother’s writings were very moving. -LW
