After more than three decades on the business side of the music industry, I decided to create my own encore and write a novel. I have no expectations that anyone other than my closest friends will read it - and even them under duress or obligation. Regardless, I finished it and present it here. I am well on my way to the next one with only the thought that I love the process. I continue to work in music, reside in Nashville, and spend a lot of time with the greatest dog in the world. My very own circus with my very own monkeys.
