Susan Schorn has written an entertaining, educational, and amusing memoir about the lessons learned in her practice of karate. I'm not a martial artist, I have no desire to be a martial artist, but I really like her writing style and her sense of humor, both of which are very approachable and relatable.
Schorn is an imperfect person (a real person, thank God), who uses what she learns in the dojo to deal with pushy people, disappearing contractors, family illness, and all the other little things that can annoy us. Along the way she also gives the reader some great hints for setting limits, finding personal strength, and making oneself feel easier in difficult situations. This is a good read that I enjoyed enough to want to read more from its author, so I'll be looking up Schorn's web site in the very near future.
