Hulk Hogan caused quite a stir when he came to the Fairhope Piggly Wiggly today. That’s such a funny sentence, I think I’ll just let it hang there. And tomorrow? (Thursday Nov. 7th) I’ll be at The Pig. Hulk Hogan is a hard act to follow, but I’ll be with lots of others at the…
It’s been a whole week since the release of my new book, We Don’t Push in Fairhope, and I want to thank each one of you who was able to attend the launch party. What a fun night! My grandmother would say, “Come here and let me hug your neck!” If the long signing line…
Just over 100 people showed up for my launch party for my new book, We Don’t Push in Fairhope. What a incredible feeling to be so loved by those who love their hometown. – Hey, that’s kind of what my book is about! People kept coming in the back door as I was speaking and…
