Welcome to WannaBook
As I grow older and work fewer days, I have more time to explore new hobbies. Writing and publishing books for friends has become a past time, and a challenge. Charlie was my Father-in-law and told many stories of his life which we compiled into the book "Old Charlie", Lettie's Life is an interview of a family member about life in the early west.
The Trout Pond is my latest mystery novel, one I have enjoyed writing and is helping me to learn to write better. Written in 27 days and then improved on during the following year I hope to have a second edition with the added improvements before the end of the year, so be sure and get a copy of your first edition before the changes.
My second new book, Caves and Cavers of the Southeast, is all caves, stories of my experiences and how many of us became interested in caving.
My Short Story collection is where the ideals start and I may go back to them to develop a novel. I remain just a wanna-be-writer.
I hope that you enjoy reading the following stories as much as I enjoyed bringing them to you.
