It's all about the water

It's All About the Water is the title of my book. So, that's a curious title, what's it about? This is a collection of stories from my life. Not the story of my life, like an autobiography, but stories from my life. Hopefully interesting, intended to be entertaining, and guaranteed to make you smile. In other words, I think you will enjoy reading it, even if you don't know me.

I started writing this book because my Dad died. Say what? Yep, you read that right. When Dad passed, I realized that his life story, which I think was pretty interesting, had never been written down, so that it could be passed on to future generations. I initially set out to write his stories, at least as much as I know. Then it hit me, what about my stories? So, here ya go! And the first couple chapters tell a little bit of my ancestors' stories, including Dad's. Since I am currently living, so is the book! I will periodically add stories, make corrections, update photos with better ones, etc. It carries version numbers, like a piece of software, so you can always tell if your copy is up to date.

Not the best part, but a really good part, this book is absolutely FREE, and always will be. Download it, read it, give a copy to your friends and family, post a review on Facebook, call your favorite movie producer and suggest he make it into a movie. Well, ok,;ay, maybe not that last one. And most of all, enjoy it!

Backstory – I was driving in Brentwood, TN during the Christmas season, and the song “Mary Did You Know” was on the radio. Just as it reached the climax “I AM”, I passed an old rusty mailbox with its tongue hanging down, and the idea was born.
