The Red Bridge (eBook, ePUB)

Wishes Come True: Volume 2

Produktbeschreibung

The Red Bridge is real, the stories are not; they come from a confabulation of ideas and facts in my memory. All the stories have a mention of a Red Bridge in them. In some, the stories are connected to it, but in others, the bridge is but a cameo in the story. The bridge depicted on the cover is how I remember it from my childhood. It is a sister bridge which still stands while the actual Red Bridge has been replaced by concrete, and is not near as beautiful as the original one. I must say I am the only one with this memory and attachment to the Red Bridge. Along with memories of my Grandmother and Grandfather McAdam, it is a strong pull to my roots in my hometown of Perth, Ontario. While there may be a hint of the real, my characters are totally fictitious and are not meant to symbolize anyone real, living or dead. They are created for fun and enjoyment.

Autorenporträt

Born in Perth ON. I spent most of my life in Northern Ontario. I returned to school in 1968 and received an Accounting Diploma in 1971 and a General Science Degree in 1981. I spent thirty two years teaching adults in the Community College in Timmins and Moosonee and retired in 2000, moving to North Bay, and in 2005 to Sturgeon Falls along the river. I am married to Maria Leclerc- McAdam, a Personal Growth counselor who also gives workshops. We have seven children between us. I have always aspired to write about those ideas tumbling around in my imagination, but never got around to it until 2007 when I started putting things on paper as part of the Win Lit contests. In retirement, besides helping Maria in her work, I take the pontoon upriver as often as possible. We like to snowshoe, x-country ski and are avid readers.
