Autorenporträt
After two years in the army, most of it in Korea in 1952/53, I bought a moving company and made good money in the transfer of furniture. I would work all day, then sing and play a big part of the night away. I knew several of the big stars but my idol, Hank Williams, had passed away while I was in the military, so I never got a chance to meet him, although I was backed up several times by some of his band. One night I was singing, "Blue Darling," when I saw my wife-to-be, and something said to me---She's The One, and she has been for almost 63 years. I have written about 1500 songs, poems, recitations, etc. There's been 7 novels published along the way. For several years I was part of a jail ministry; first in the detention center, then the jail. Once I told the sheriff I wanted to go to the penitentiary, that I had all my paperwork and shots. He said NO! I told him that if Johnny Cash had been allowed to do so, I should too, but he wouldn't back down. Things are pretty bad when one can't buy his way into the big house, but the sheriff was a good guy. In the spring of 2017 I had to give up the jail routine due to bad health. I have written an unknown number of short stories and always have several underway; some humorous, some that would scare the socks off you. Almost every part of the, "Truth About Eddie," series is true, factual---actually happened; I just pepped them up a bit.
