Reseña del editor:
Peek inside the wild life of a man who fought to change. “My salvation came in the form of a concept: fighting poison with poison; the same as using Cobra or Rattlesnake venom to save someone bitten by one of the vipers. I was the viper bitten by itself. ... When living, I used to lose interest in life and then go on sprees capable of causing death. When faced with death I fought to live: a paradox of my existence.” THE SEARCH FOR ENLIGHTENMENT. “Maybe I was born mean, violent, screaming and striking all near when I came from my Mother’s womb. And, yes, I was a disturbed child, disturbed by loud noise, inside and outside my home: my mind a whirlwind of fears; fear I would die as a child; fear my family would abandon me for being so mean; fear a jet or plane would fall upon our house and kill us all, fear I would be left alone with planes racking my brain.” AN AIRPORT ATE THE NEIGHBORHOOD. Essays & More Straight from the Pen contains twelve essays, three poems, and one short story about Taser, a typical, arrogant male who learns humility in an unusual manner. Adventure into something unique.
Biografía del autor:
Wayne T. Dowdy writes. He does technical writing as part of his job at the Federal Prison Industries; legal documents for his peers, and then to entertain his readers he writes essays, short stories, some poetry, and novels. He used pseudonyms for some of his published writings, but when he writes under his real name he includes the "T" to avoid confusion. Search "Wayne Dowdy" and you find a few: add the "T" and you will find the man writing Straight From the Pen--a Southern Gentleman by nature, but with a history of not always being gentle. From Atlanta, Georgia, he came, but who knows from where he will leave, writing, probably.
