I have a place near my trailer on the outskirts of Phoenix. Maybe I’ll make it.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Howdy. I appreciate you reading my books—more than you can know. If you’ve read this far, (not only the third book in the series, but the stuff at the back of the book as well), you and I are fellow travelers. I suspect you sense something is not quite right with the world. It’s not as good as it’s supposed to be. We human beings aren’t as good as our ideals. Yet, we prize and want to fight for them.
I do my absolute best to write stories that portray the human situation with brutal transparency, but also I strive to tell stories that are not as bleak as the human condition sometimes seems. There’s no limit to the darkness. Light is rare. But it exists, and I hope when you complete one of my novels, you find your values validated. I hope I encourage you to fight the good fight, just as you encourage me when you buy my books, review them, and join my Facebook group, the Red Meat Lit Street Team. Y’all are an awesome community. It’s good that we’re in this fight together, and I’m grateful you’re out there. Thank you.
Remember, light wins in the end.

[1] Author’s Note: I did not write this poem. My wife related it to me many years ago after learning it from a man in a nursing home. I wish I could credit him by name. Given the choice of not including the line or of giving its author anonymous credit, I chose the latter.
