It's a human interest story about two mismatched fishing buddies that lasted a lifetime, and then some. Although there are elements of fiction, the story is based on actual experiences, a dedication to the author's very best friend who sadly passed away. It's about a true and lasting friendship of the men and their families, who despite their differences and the periods where they lived far apart from each other, managed to remain very close friends. The story chronicles the escapades of the two men during their often very, very funny, and at times scary fishing adventures. If you like to fish, then you will really enjoy the tales. Be prepared to laugh until you hurt, sigh from time to time, and maybe cry a little bit. It's wholesome family reading, and you'll feel good when you've read the book.

There comes a point where it's time to put together many unpublished, per se, and unrelated literary epistles under one cover, and so here it is. There's lots of stuff included, such as poems and stories that have been entered in contests and received the highest of accolades, but didn't win because the writer was new and unknown. In fact, the 500-word essay, "Getting Old for Dummies," received an "All Time Best" award (less than 5% of all poems, stories, etc., posted on the site receive the award) from FanStory.com, a Gold Dust Award for best worldwide literary site. There's no telling how many great writers go unnoticed because the writers don't have the money or the contacts to promote themselves. I'm positive you "would be famous writers" know the feeling all too well. The material will include some really polished stuff, and quite a bit of original raw material such as crossword and word tangle puzzles. There's no pretense here of appealing to the New York Times Best Seller makers, Oprah Book Review people, and some such. However, be that as it may, this is a great mumbo jumbo of literary art, and a really fun read. Enjoy
