At the height of the tech stock boom, Matthew Spaur wanted to have it all. He began a blended family with Connye and her three sons, and together they started a new weekly newspaper. But during their second Christmas together, Connye was diagnosed with porphyria, a rare genetic blood disorder. Could he really do it all, despite having never owned a business, worked on a newspaper, or been a parent? 'This memoir's reward is insights shared by a man honest with himself and his strengths and limitations in a way that is compelling, actually quietly fascinating.' -- Jay Levin, Founder of LA Weekly newspaper Matthew Spaur is a marketing and strategic communications professional with more than 20 years' experience spanning many industries including education, HR, IT, energy, consulting, and publishing.
