I was born and raised in Salem Indiana; I am certified adult peer support specialist to help recovering addicts and I have a bachelor's degree in ministry from the International School of Ministry.I have two children named Nikia Morgan and Jacob Howard. I had been lost all my life and the devil had lied to me trying to steal my soul by being in addiction for thirty-two years.I was paralyzed in drugs and fear and God inspired me and brought me out of darkness to his light. What inspired me to write this book he set the fire in my soul by my faith through grace I was forgiven.Trusting in him coming outside the prison walls I continued being faithful to God to be called to his purpose and plan before the second coming to build up God's kingdom.

Now an audiobook on YouTube! Get ready for a captivating collection of true tales that will transport you straight back to the 1960s and right into the colorful times, bold adventures and hilarious hijinks of a small crew of rambunctious boys navigating the rapidly changing landscape of South Florida. You will discover wild imaginations, wrestle with infestations, dodge nasty neighbors and endure but a dusting of parental supervision. Was there mayhem? You bet. These are my stories, over fifty in all. You will be surprised, charmed, sometimes shocked, laugh out loud and perhaps shed a tear, but also discover what you did not know you knew little about. What does Charles Goodyear have to do with the slingshot? What is a Bufo marinus? Whatever happened to angel wings and sissy bars? Why is a Molotov cocktail not a bomb and just how does one sleep in trees? There were ten of us. We all scattered following high school. I do not believe that a single one was permanently maimed, psychologically scarred or even arrested, though I cannot vouch for this with certainty. There were cuts, bruises and sprains aplenty, blood lost, a few yards of stitches and numerous splints, an occasional broken bone and several concussions. But all the perpetrators made it through the gauntlet alive. Sadly, the same cannot be said for a small legion of lizards, land crabs, mockingbirds, blue jays, snakes, mosquitoes, wasps, bees, giant stinging grasshoppers, walking sticks, poisonous caterpillars, slugs, snails, red ants and Bufo marinus. Read on. Enjoy the tales.
