Description
This little book is a series of personal vignettes by award-winning author/journalist Skip Johnson that are just plain down fun to read, like how his fiancee introduced him to her best friend, whom a year later he married, or how he joined a venerable local charity's board and two months later found himself president and only member of the board, a board that was $50,000 in debt, with no idea how to pay it, and it was up to him and him alone to fix things, or how he very accidentally single-handedly captured an armed and dangerous bank robber, or how some very bad decisions early in his life led him into a thirty-year career as a newspaper reporter, columnist and editor.
Some of these stories are light, some are serious, some are tear-jerkers, some are important, and some are just intriguing. Some deal with events related to his life as a journalist, and others with family and other facets of life. But all of them, you will agree, are readable.
But once you read them, beware. They very well may make you want to write your own book of personal vignettes, and you probably should. Don't you wish your grandparents had?
