| Introduction | I'm 86 as of 07-22-2025 and a retired journalist. Much of my time now is taken up with music. I play in two bands, the Irish Newsboys and Blue-Eyed Grass. I'm the author of "SCORE: Memoirs of a Weed Smuggler," an as-told-to, nonfiction book available on Amazon.I have two books of poetry: "Till We Have Faces," available on Amazon, and "One Set of Footprints," a book of haiku available from Red Moon Press. I also occasionally do cartooning and other artwork. |
