The Art of Hero Worship (26 page)

One hero sets the ball in motion, risking
his safety and pride, and the other picks the ball up when it rolls
by the wayside, and carries it down the field. Without both of
these heroes, this relationship could not work.

CDP: Lastly. The message you so succinctly
put across in the book is, in my view, that we are the heroes in
our own lives. We have to pull ourselves up and do what it takes to
make a difference in our own lives, and in the lives of the people
around us, and in the life of this planet.

The time is over when we waited around for
some other hero to rescue us.... All heroes are busy in their own
lives. We must come to our own rescue. Would you agree with
this?

MK: By demonstrating that two very different
men become heroes in two very different ways in this microcosm of a
world where Jason and Liam live, I am establishing my belief that
everyone has the potential to be a hero in their own life, as well
in the lives of those around them.

I am aware that not everyone is the active
hero, willing to put himself at physical risk. And not everyone is
willing to try something new, or to take an existing relationship
and mold it until it is something stronger.

But all people have the potential to be
their own type of hero. However, I also believe that there are some
people who step back and do not embrace the role of hero in any
way, shape, or form.

Readers will meet these
characters in
The Art of Hero
Worship
. They do not possess the physical
or emotional fortitude to save themselves or others. They can see
no worthiness to the risk of changing the environment in which they
presently live. So, although I do believe we can all be our own and
other peoples’ heroes, we can just as easily refuse to see
ourselves as heroes and fall from the challenge.

Come To My Window

Mia Kerick is an award-winning author of
stories involving the type of life events that are riveting to read
about, but you probably wouldn’t want to experience first-hand.
Into her fictional disasters, she sprinkles a sufficient quantity
of touching and spicy adult LGBTQ romance to keep her readers
coming back for more.

Having relocated from Boston, Massachusetts
to rural New Hampshire, Mia lives with her doting husband, four
brilliant and accomplished young adult children who will one day
likely contribute to the establishment of world peace (Mia believes
in self-fulfilling prophecies), and at least three too many
cats.

She suffers with a severe case of
mall-withdrawal, which leads to frequent online shopping, and an
overly personal relationship with the UPS driver.
