Jon Morrow built a multi-million-dollar business and defies all odds despite only being able to move his face. Now we're teaming up to write his story ... and sharing every step along the way.
I’m looking forward to reading this: it sounds like the perfect combination of a great, and funny writer with a genuinely and seemingly deservingly over-the-top subject. I’m also looking forward to the inspiration and life tips from this, which I could certainly do with: bring it on!
I love the title and idea of "The Impossible Man" and I'm now very interested in learning more about Jon Morrow and stuff he's written (it's going to be my next web search dive into the Internet rabbit holes). I always love hearing about how people defy expectations and become "superheroes" of any kind. It probably why superhero fiction has such a big hold on my heart, also because as a disabled creative myself, I struggle against discrimination and other people's assumptions on top of all my personal brain demons.
I would like to say, though, especially for anyone who reads this who feels like "they aren't doing enough when this amazing guy has grabbed the world by the throat and CHANGED REALITY" that it's okay to just be you. Authentically, uniquely you. Maybe you don't have the same toolbox, skill set, or connections, but if you want them, they can be got! If you want the other thing that a lot of people say they want and can't have - inner peace - it comes from accepting who you are and working your growth your own way. Jon Morrow is a superhero. I feel like I, myself, am more like a lake. Like Jon Morrow, I like to learn, and I like to go deep. Some fields are harder to absorb than others, like science (I have read, reread, forgotten, and then reread literature about my various health issues so much now that I'm hoping it sinks it at some sort of deep long-term memory storage someday). I strive to make sure my lake is as pristine and undisturbed as possible, and that I am a warm and supportive person who makes everyone's lives that I touch better in some way. Like a drink of water, or a cool breeze coming off the lake.
We are all definitely an on-going product of what we choose to do with ourselves, and I admire Jon Morrow, and I admire Johnny Truant, too, with everything they've done and will continue to do! I'm delighted to be able to watch, and to participate. It inspires me to do better in myself.
Johnny, I've been with you since the beginning, and this post (and project) are a definite reminder that, while you're a "fiction guy" now, you're a hell of an essayist and blogger. Can't wait to follow this journey!
The Impissible man made felt there was void in story? Why, as I listen his mother is aging and described as tired of "Jon Morrow " his condition or possibly of another significant hospitalization is" too much for her" and his worker quiting because in his words they don't believe him. He also had only one in your interview, attempt of relation of female but intimacy failed. And that where I wonder in all Jon Works and endeavors where I'd his intimacy and has he ever been lapsed at his highs and lots left wanting.
Yet falls on I over come this physical Transformation, I wealthy and Mostly independently. Where is Phycological makeup his ID his personality not AI
Johnny, this is an excellent article. Loved learning about Jon more -- and it almost makes me hate him a little less now.
Was always a fan of his, until he stole one of my best friends from me, who I have only talked directly to once since he was offered a job by Jon Morrow.
Granted, the Editor in Chief job was Kevin Duncan's dream job, but we were making progress as daddy bloggers, man! Still can't hear about Jon without grinding my teeth...
Okay, not really. I'm irritated, but I'm not a complete ass, and I'm not four years old.
