In the introduction to my book, It Seems like Only Yesterday I write: "I have at last finished this, my tenth book, and I have to confess that wasn't always an easy task. I don't know why, but it often seemed that the more I wrote, the less I had down on paper. Fortunately, one day upon having finished chapter thirty-three, I was content and knew that I had completed my shortest book."Well, it's no longer my shortest book-this one is, and this one was easier to write because I was content when I'd finished only twenty-three ...

In the introduction to my book, It Seems like Only Yesterday I write: "I have at last finished this, my tenth book, and I have to confess that wasn't always an easy task. I don't know why, but it often seemed that the more I wrote, the less I had down on paper. Fortunately, one day upon having finished chapter thirty-three, I was content and knew that I had completed my shortest book."Well, it's no longer my shortest book-this one is, and this one was easier to write because I was content when I'd finished only twenty-three chapters instead of thirty-three but not entirely so as I later added five more.I'll now say what I always say when I write the introduction to one of the bilingual books in this series: that I wrote it for fun, to save my experiences for posterity, and most importantly to improve my Spanish.It goes without saying that I would also hope that readers (if there are any) will enjoy this, my eleventh book. I gave It Seems like Only Yesterday to two friends and I was glad to learn that both of them had finished the book by the end of the week and that they said they liked the stories. I hope that they (and you) will like the stories in this book as well.En mi libro Parece que fuera ayer escribo: "He terminado por fin este, mi libro n???mero diez y tengo que confesar que de vez en cuando no ha sido tarea f???cil. No s??? por qu???, pero muy a menudo me parec???a que cuanto m???s escrib???a menos p???ginas me quedaban. Afortunadamente, un d???a al escribir el cap???tulo treinta y dos, me sent??? contento y supe que hab???a terminado mi libro m???s peque???o."Bueno, ya no es mi libro m???s peque???o; este lo es y este libro era m???s f???cil de escribir porque me sent??? contento al escribir el cap???tulo veinticuatro en lugar del treinta y tres, pero tal vez no estuviera totalmente contento ya que m???s tarde a???ad??? cinco cap???tulos.Dir??? lo que siempre digo al escribir la introducci???n de un libro biling???e en espa???ol e ingl???s de esta serie: que lo escrib??? para entretenerme, para guardar mis experiencias para la posteridad, y m???s importante para mejorar mi espa???ol.Se da por sentado que tambi???n espero que a los lectores (si hay lectores) les guste este, mi libr??? n???mero once. Regal??? Parece que fuera ayer a dos amigos y me alegr??? al enterarme de que a la semana siguiente los dos ya lo hab???an le???do y al o???r que les gustaban las historias. Espero que a ellos (y a usted) tambi???n les gusten las historias de este libro.
