“Do you know any of these guys (characters) in this book?”
Ann Edall-Robson Author, Photographer, Lover of Life "Capturing moments others may never get to experience." |
Growing up, life, and events happened because they just did. As I got older, I had a different take on that thought, and every so often something would filter through my day creating a déjà vu moment. I maybe shrugged this off, but it got archived somewhere in the grey matter for future reference. ![]() I was twelve years old the first time I read the trilogy by Richmond P. Hobson Jr. — a.k.a. Rich Hobson. Book one, Grass Beyond the Mountains took place some thirty years before I opened the cover. It didn’t take me long to grasp that I knew some parts of the country the setting was established in. Some would say it was in our so-called backyard. And how cool was it that he passed through our area to get to his destination. Naming towns along the way that were part of my life. At that age, what I wasn’t acquainted with were the people in the book. Who better to talk to than someone I presumed knew everything, and maybe everyone…my dad. I did most of the talking and dad would nod, and occasionally answer a question or two that I threw out there, like: “Do you know any of these guys (characters) in this book?” View Original Post 562 more words.

Normally, when you see my name and the words Carrot Ranch, you link them to the 99Word flash fiction stories I write. This week, however, I have had the pleasure of joining this literary community as a guest columnist.
