Set against a backdrop of blues music, "Woke Up This Morning" is
a humorous take on the conflict caused in a small island community
and in the island ecology by a wild growing field of
marijuana.
Editorial Reviews
Bill Stephens "Woke Up This Morning" is a dizzying mix of
Mexican drug dealers, Port Aransas shrimpers, a zany evangelical
church, wild cognizant critters, and stoners high on wild growing
marijuana. The result is a coherent and fast-paced portrayal of
life and conflict on Texas Mustang Island. Throw in danger,
suspense, the supernatural, and comedy, and the pages turn
themselves. Highly enjoyable
Florence Weinberg, author of "Unrest in Eden"
In Bill Stephens "Woke Up This Morning," shrimper Harpoon Conroy
makes one huge mistake that throws the entire population of Mustang
Island into an uproar. After a series of calamities and adventures
he finds redemption and discovers what he truly loves. Add to that
mix a wry humor and a delightful array of characters and critters,
interacting in a plot that surprises and enthralls, "Woke Up This
Morning" is guaranteed to keep readers turning the pages.
