Tall Tales is a short peek into the sometimes exciting, often funny, and occasionally scary 33 year career of Washington Fish and Wildlife Police Officer Steve Rogers. From trapping beaver, raccoons, and cougars to herding elk on snowmobile to catching poachers, there were not many dull moments. Whether horse packing into the high country or running boat patrols on the Columbia River and undercover fishing patrols, there was always plenty of work to do. There was never a quiet deer or elk season in Central Washington, especially when there were antler restrictions involved. Rogers worked with a wide variety of people from fellow Washington Game Wardens and Biologists, to Forest Service Agents, and Officers with County, City, and State Agencies. He forged lasting friendships with many trappers, sportsmen, and fishermen. He also made a few enemies that had no sense of humor. There must be humor in this line of work. One final note - not a good idea to write your local Sheriff a ticket.

Peter Graham is a young man who moved to Southend-on-Sea on the Essex coast in England to be with his girl-friend. However, things do not work out and they split up leaving Peter at a loose end with his life not seeing any future for himself. To make matters worse he hates Southend and longs to get away. Unfortunately, his pay as a shop assistant is sufficiently low that it will take him years to save up to get away. At first he distances himself from the local people but after getting to know some of them he quickly finds himself embroiled in a dark web of intrigue and blackmail.

First of all let me say that the only reason I have written this book is because Mr. Paul Newman simply does not have the ability to do so on his own. It will not escape the reader's notice when they become familiar with his persona that he would have been incapable of writing it without my own assistance. I am a ghost writer. That is to say I write other people's books for them and get paid a pittance for the privilege. My own books have not been published because mediocrity rarely recognizes genius and it will probably be my fate only to be recognized posthumously. Please allow me to allay any fears that the reader might entertain about there being two narrators to the story. Although Mr. Newman had requested that it be written in the first person for its entirety, it was my idea to add my voice so as to be able to include the occasional description of events when Mr. Newman was not present. I have not attempted to insult the reader's intelligence by announcing when my voice takes over since there is a distinct difference in linguistic style that is emphatically obvious. Also, dare I say it, but I have had a university education whereas Mr. Paul Newman has not. In so far as Mr. Newman's narrative is concerned I have attempted to curb my literary tendencies and write in such a manner as I think Paul would have written had he been able to do so. In retrospect however, I have not always succeeded and the reader must forgive me when my literary tendencies run away from me. So, why is such an educated, literary man allowing himself to get mixed up with such a sordid bunch as Mr. Newman and his friends? To quote the great bard it is nothing less than the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." Personally I regard Mr. Newman as an embarrassment to the human race. He also has poor taste in friends. Mr. Newman claims that this book will show people how to win money at the race track. Anyone with an ounce of common sense will know that this is a fallacy. If you were to win money at the race track it would be by sheer luck as will be demonstrated by the events in the book as they unfold.What is Mr. Newman like? Think of Tin Tin in Herge's adventures of the same name and you have a resemblance. Think of a vacant expression and a somewhat aimless disposition and there you have him in his entirety.

Set in London and Essex in the 1970's and 1980's, this story follows the fortunes of Brian Adams, a young man who sees himself as a rather ordinary bloke who just wants to live a quiet life. By chance, he becomes one of the early pioneers of marijuana cultivation at home. Although he seems to have the ability to produce plants of outstanding quality, he is never quite able to reap the benefits of his success due to the fact that he suffers from intermittent, acute bouts of paranoia. As a remedy he decides to move to the imagined safety of an English country village where he hopes to realize his dream of a quiet life in an environment where he can get as stoned as he likes but without the paranoia. After moving to what appears to be the ideal location in a secluded, picturesque village in the Essex countryside, he soon discovers that things are not quite what they seem.

Tom Ryan Jr. is locked up in the Alzheimer's Unit of Peaceful Harbor Nursing Home. His father, Tom Ryan Sr., died on the 8-by-10-foot Astro Turf in the recreation room of the same nursing home. Sadly, Tom Sr. passed along the Alzheimer's gene to his son, who also wheels himself to that very same plastic green turf every day, as he goes through the identical transformation his father did. Tom Jr. believes his only lucid thoughts about people, places, and stories are about his life on the golf course. Still Lost is a story filled with sarcasm, yet at the same time it is tragic, dark, and redemptive. It tells of the lonely ride taken by the Alzheimer's-afflicted narrator. The author wrote this novel as a sequel to Lost in Love Grass, published in 2010. He has also written a trilogy of children's books: Bogey the Wonder Squirrel, Dogs Can Fly, and The Miracle of Helen the Rabbit. (About the Author) Retired from the insurance industry, Steve Rogers grew up in the small coastal town of Tiverton, Rhode Island. He now resides in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts. "I use both locations in my book, but not the actual names of the towns. It is my fifth book published by Strategic."

He says, "I was fortunate to have a class of second-grade kids do the crayon illustrations!" Rogers is also the author of the memoir Lost in Love Grass: The Fragmented Tale of an Alzheimer's Afflicted Lifetime Duffer.

What happens when a newborn squirrel falls from its nest and gets stuck in some guy's golf hat? The story of Bogey begins. A squirrel that grew up in a house with a big golden dog, a snowy white kitty cat, a mom, a dad, and two boys. A squirrel who could never learn to be a squirrel, but who could know. Learn about his life and adventures in a world that wasn't the typical, natural world a squirrel usually finds itself in. The story is funny, strange and sometimes a little sad. It works out just fine when Bogey gets a painted red tail. If you are out in the woods and you see a red-tailed squirrel, it just might be him."A fun read for kids of every age!" - Larry Hall"How hilarious it is to see a dog, cat and a squirrel running around in a big circle playing critter tag!" - Elaine Rogers"A lesson for all on family pets!" - Russ MartoranaSteve Rogers has written Dogs Can Fly, another children's book.
