Produktbeschreibung

Most of this material was written by the author during the sixties to roaring nineties. Some of the attitudes presented may have been influenced by John Gray's Men Are from Mars Women Are from Venus. The material was collected, rewritten, and collated during the period 2011-2020. The enterprise of collecting the material was prolonged by a stint on the Saskatchewan School Boards Association board of directors, including several years as the Urban Public representative and three years as president of the association. The major stumbling block was a series of life-threatening health conditions. Most of them were complications from a long battle with an early onset of type 2 diabetes. The collection is a miscellany of contradictions from gentle family material to adult situations galore. Adultery, stalking, and men who can't keep their johnson in their pants meet women who welcome their advances and many who don't. It's all meant to be good fun. Life is more worth living if we don't take ourselves or anybody else too seriously. Some of us have too many Neanderthal genes and others don't have enough. Classifying ourselves is so last century. Welcome to the world of Homo sapiens. The human race, better than a marathon, and everyone is a winner.

Autorenporträt

Roy J. Challis lives with his wife Donna in a small city on the north side of the North Saskatchewan River Valley. He recognizes the peace and solitude that comes from living on Treaty Six territory as we are all treaty people. He was born in Surrey, England, the result of an accidental meeting between his Saskatchewan-born-and-bred father and his English mother during wartime. An event that stamped perpetual chaos on his mind. Roy has been writing and performing and teaching in The Battlefords since 1966. He has been honored by Theatre Saskatchewan Inc. with a lifetime achievement award, by the Saskatchewan Drama Association with an Outstanding Achievement Award, by the Canadian Mental Health Association with a Volunteer of the Year Award, and by the Saskatchewan School Boards Association with a Lifetime Membership and Award of Distinction. Being a big fish in a little pond has its benefits and allows one to make big waves without capsizing the canoe.
