Once in a while you find a book that defies all the rules of 'normal', a book that doesn't fit neatly into any particular shelf of the bookstore. Off Center is one of those books. It isn't a fictional work, because most of the stories are mostly true. It isn't a non-fiction work, because some of the stories are almost entirely unreal.

Once in a while you find a book that defies all the rules of 'normal', a book that doesn't fit neatly into any particular shelf of the bookstore. Off Center is one of those books. It isn't a fictional work, because most of the stories are mostly true. It isn't a non-fiction work, because some of the stories are almost entirely unreal. It isn't a collection of poetry, because there are only a few poems included. It isn't a book on family, even though many of the stories come out of one fun-loving, thinking, growing family. It isn't a book of philosophy or religion, though both can be seen, whether between the lines or actually in them. What is it, then? It is stories. It is humor. It is poetry. It is observations. It is... living, on paper. Off Center is... well, it is the Ramblings, Poetry, Prose, Humor, and Thoughts of a Man with a Pen. Want to know more? Come, then, and join author Mark Cheatwood as he journeys through a life lived just outside the realm of normal. From hilarious snippets to faith-filled moments and all the enjoyable little morsels in between, he invites you to share in the ups and downs along the way. You will find yourself belly-laughing one moment and shedding tears at the sheer beauty of life in the next in this eclectic collection of musing and meditation from Mark. "If I want to be reminded about the beauty of everyday living, I only need to open it to a random page and point." - Wanda B. "I love that this book is relatable, meanwhile has many things to teach you, such as simply being present in your life (that was my takeaway)." - Emily W.
