LATE SUMMER 2008 In his carry-on luggage, Quincy Pollard held a piece of literary light. He was dark skinned with bright white teeth. He wore a gray blazer with a white dress shirt and no tie. He flew in the business section of the plane. With the aircraft in flight, Pollard still had a glowing sense in his mind. As he passed by other passengers reading Stephenie Meyers’ Twilight or David Sedaris’ When You're Engulfed in Flames, his mind glowed with realization that he held something worth more than all of those books combined. In the days of Blackberry phones and flip phones; before iPhones, Nook, and the Kindle became popular, there was still the physical book.

I faced obstacles that could have easily crushed others, but I remained determined to persevere.
