Short description
Edge of the Lake, a collection of humor essays reminiscent of the work of Dave Barry, is narrated by J.W., a writer who moves next door to his vivacious mom Katy to finish a novel. Although comfortably settled in her guest house, he unfortunately fails to find the peace and quiet he needs. More truth than fiction, these stories are the result of years of family fiascoes and life at its craziest.Extended description
Nestled on the edge of the lake, lies a remote village where eccentric retirees enjoy hours of peaceful reflection punctuated by moments of extreme terror. In the afterglow of a memorable sunset, thrilling situations arise that challenge the resources of our hero J.W., a writer who is visiting his mother Katy for an interlude of quiet creativity.Little does he suspect his comfortable life will be complicated by aliens, Bigfoot, and any number of intimidating desert denizens. With the help of his inventive mom, he battles frogs, snakes, and Chihuahuas, and solves the quandaries of needy neighbors.
A collection of strange but true family stories and filled with pictures of one of Texas' most beautiful lakes and some of its fascinating inhabitants, Edge of the Lake will amuse and inform the questing reader.
