FRIENDSHIP-A PRECIOUS GIFT

9/23/2017

I remember as a child what friendship meant. It was special, irritating, fun, and crazy. The smallest events were big adventures.

Our imaginations ran unchecked. We were living life. As a child, friendship seemed so simple and authentic. Do you ever think back and remember your childhood and that special friend? Children have a magical way of often teaching us the importance and meaning of friendship.

I personally believe these two stories treat true friendship with the love and caring it deserves.

My next book, due out late October is actually two short stories.

They both deal with young friendship. The first story, "Jamison and Joey", two ten year old boys, takes place on a farm in Wyoming.

Bored with the final weeks of summer the two of them set out to have an adventure. What awaits them at Lightning Lake will test their friendship far more than either bargained for.

The other story is called "Three Strikes." It is about selflessness and sacrifice. It reminds us what a true friend is.

What makes a writer? What do you envision when you think about that question?

Someone sitting by an open window looking out over the ocean, desert, mountains? Rainy day, foggy, sunny?

My definition of a writer of fiction. A person who drives himself or herself to the edge of insanity when writing a story to the best of their ability that you the reader find entertaining.

I can honestly say my life has been interesting, far from boring. Land baron, restaurateur, photographer, artisan, author. A life full of ups and downs. A life full of stories.

Along the way I've met hundreds of people, some interesting, some not. Some dangerous, some beautiful, some kind, and some cruel. During my lifetime I've even had my heart run over a couple of times, but when all of it is said and done I wouldn't trade it in.

Writing has always been inside of me, but the siren never called to me. I wasn't ready until one day in October of 2015 when life said, "Start writing."

Writing is a long journey, full of many perils, but don't be afraid it is an exciting adventure!
