Panic Terror is a book about friends, family, and eccentric southern relatives. Two marriages, raising six children, building a house, teaching close to 40 yearsits a collection of autobiographical poems and stories. Panic and terror are the emotions I feel most strongly when I sit down to write. Panthe god associated with delivering both joy and terroroften imposed both states of being on unsuspecting individuals he encountered as he played his flute. I have met Pan often along the way. Panic Terror is my attempt to synthesize my often humorous life experiences and the holy terror that goes along with the spooky art of trying to capture fleeting memories in writing.
