Whyever Write A Book?

The book is a collection of 36 "real life" (more or less) stories and was written for the sole purpose of making people laugh. The stories are individual and can be read in any order. They are arranged chronologicall from "Story 1 (Age 6)My First Public Appearance: 'Show and Tell'" to Story 36 (Age 68)My Siblings: 'I Could Have Been An Only Child And a Contender'". It is hoped that readers will find events and situations described that are similar to experiences from their own lives. These might include: "Story 11 (Age 16)My First Car: 'A Bathtub With An Electric Drain'" or "Story 18 (Age 35)What They Don't Teach You In School: 'Help! I was Audited'". If I have talent and it is revealed in this book it is my ability to tell real stories and most importantly the way I tell them. Of course this is entirely in the mind of the listener or reader.
