This book is a cocked gun pointed at your head. It's Gus's finger on the trigger, from beyond the grave. We don't know quite when he died, but we know where: at a motel desk, working on this book. It seems ghoulish to tell you what page was still there flickering on his computer screen, behind which word his cursor was blinking when the massive coronary struck and killed him dead. If you read closely, you might be able to hazard a good guess. When his ex-wife Penelope found him, he'd been dead for several days. His head was thrown back, his arms spread wide, his eyes half shut, as if closing them on Heaven. I think he would be pleased for you to take this image of him with you as you begin to read.

Write Your Heart Out : Advice from the Moon Winx Motel

Following in the footsteps of the fictional Ray Kinsella in Field of Dreams, writer Rob Trucks traveled the country in search of modern Moonlight Grahams – former pitchers whose major league careers lasted less than fifty innings. Cup of Coffee collects Trucks’s conversations with eighteen of these men – what they went through to reach the major leagues, why they didn’t stay, and what they saw, heard, and learned along the way. 
These are stories of success and failure, accomplishment and disappointment, heartbreak and fulfillment, all while rubbing shoulders with baseball legends on the national pastime’s greatest stage. Cup of Coffee speaks not only to baseball aficionados, but students of the human condition as well.
