Produktbeschreibung

No cell phones and electronics. Escape to a world of stories that feature a ghost, several snakes, a sinking canoe, peeing from a treetop, and more. Told by a fearless youngster that takes on every adventure without any thought of danger or injury. The signal from channel six out of Bluefield, West Virginia, made its way through the mountains to an aluminum antenna mounted on the housetop and into the black and white television in our living room. Despite this relatively new-fangled invention, a popular form of summertime entertainment consisted of family and friends gathering on somebody's porch. Along about dark-with dim light coming from a lamp left on inside-someone would start a story. These were classic storytellers with all the voice inflection and body language that captures the attention and enthralls the listener. This collection is a written form of some of the verbal stories I have told many times. Escape…enjoy…smile a little. 25,000 words.

Autorenporträt

Roger left the southern mountains of West Virginia and joined the Air Force during the Viet Nam era. He traveled extensively, but his heart remained in the south. His writings reflect the southern attitude from those years ago. After receiving an MBA in International Business, Roger worked for many years in the corporate world. He is an adjunct business instructor for a local university and a fulltime author and artist. His stories usually have backgrounds and characters that exist in a simpler time. No cell phones or other electronics distract his characters from experiencing the full adventure of just living.
