“Death by Lightning”, “The Sparrow Man” and “The Time I Almost Drown” are all fiction based on real life events. This is the only adult book in my Ozark Mountains series, the other novels and short stories are enjoyed by all ages.

An excerpt form ”Death by Lightning”:
“I stared down at the shiny black casket as though a hypnotic trance had closed the windows to my soul and left me living inside my mind. I looked up from the open grave as Reverend Thompson tossed a handful of dirt into the October wind and began to pray.
“Raymond was a God-fearing man called early by his Maker…”
Overcome, I turned away from the family burial site and ran down the hill past our white, farmhouse, past my father’s 1939 Chevy pickup and on to the horse barn. Panic took control of my reasoning.”

An excerpt from ”The Sparrow Man”:
"The Sparrow Man” is a work of fiction based on a true-life story about a man who lives in a rural area in the upper Mid-West who has a hatred for sparrows. SADLY, a little know fact is that in many towns worldwide there are people like Rufus, the Sparrow Man, a bully, who kills sparrows and sometimes starlings on a regular basis. If you don’t believe this happens on a broad scale Google “I hate sparrows.” It’s shocking the number of web pages that will appear.”

An excerpt from “The Time I Almost Drown”
”As I shot up to the surface I must have looked like a wounded animal to the people on the bank. I was gasping for air with my arms, legs and back scraped and bleeding. My survival generated the most applause I had ever gotten in my life except when I out ran a charging bull in the hay field and slithered though a fence before he gored me into the ground."
