“This is My Best” – it’s the title of a book I periodically read, an anthology of writer’s self-proclaimed “best”.  No one else chose the writer’s best writing.  They chose for themselves.  Some writers chose a specific chapter from a book, others chose essays.

David Sedaris, who I previously wrote about, included an essay from his book “Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim”.  He prefaces his presentation by stating he would “feel much more comfortable contributing to an anthology titled “This one’s not so bad” or “Here is my least worst”.”

Even people who have received acclaim for their work have self doubt and struggle when asked to state their “best” aloud or in writing, for all the world to see.  Today I’ll find one thing that is my best. What is yours?
