THIS is my first book, or attempt at a book. It comes from my love of writing and the use of words and the different forums they are used in... like the dialogue in a movie script and the impact it can have on the audience when the main character shares a secret that dramatically changes the direction of the movie...or your favorite song, where it feels like those lyrics were what you wanted to say, and the singer is singing to you. These are some of the ways words have spoken to me. I have a great appreciation for music and the history of the bands and artists that play it. I have also loved the little stories and nuggets that accompany the making of an album...or how a song was arrived at or what it was inspired by. So this book is a collection of short stories about bands and their songs, names of bands and other odds and ends that have popped into my head over the years. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it -- and always remember to keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel.
