I'd like to welcome the talented Larry Enright onto my blog today...
Briefly describe your journey in writing your first book.
All of my stories begin with ideas. I see or recall a situation and it strikes me as something interesting or potentially interesting.

During those moments, my mind is totally free. If I can remember the idea af... Continue reading ...
