Q. I Have read that you have included song titles in each chapter of Tall Air.  Can you share them?

​

A.Yes, the following partial list includes some great music.  Many readers listen to each song before reading each chapter or play the music while reading.  Tell me what you think after you read the book.  Select  songs in Tall Air include:

​

"I never Walk Alone" – Mormon Tabernacle Choir/ From Carousel xvii

"Father and Son" – Yusuf/Cat Stevens. 

"Here  Comes the Sun" – Beatles. 

 

 "I'm Eighteen" – Alice Cooper 

"Born to Be Wild" – Steppenwolf

"Going Up the Country" – Canned Heat

 

 "Eve of Destruction"– Barry McGuire. 

"Sing, Sing, Sing" – Benny Goodman. 

"Moonlight Serenade" – Glenn Miller

"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree" – Glenn Miller 

​

​

Q.  Can you expand on the storyline in True Blue for your readers?

 A.  Yes, indeed.  Our protagonists, Mathe Stone and Jonathon Finley, push the edges of friendship throughout their hilarious and frightful teenage missteps and first loves to the extreme challenge of war.  Tall Air's pulse-pounding combat sequences focus their heroism as Navy fighter pilots on each other under fire and the sacrifices of their loved ones and country. 

 

As a former Blue Angel said, "Tall Air will ask you to breathe a little deeper, feel a little more, and find the strength to fly into combat with  the best aviators depicted in its pages."

 

Q. I read one of your business articles on company reorganization and wondered if there are others I could review.

A.  Please click on LinkedIn to read each article that may be of interest.   

​

Q. My teenage nephew likes one of your characters in Tall Air.  Can you tell me a little more about him and his story?

 

A. Yes, tell him Finn was an aviator that flew an assortment of the military, civil and mainline (airline) aircraft and lived a full life outdoors when he wasn't driving the Main Line's big iron.  He was smart, giving, and sometimes aggressive in his life pursuits of flying,  hiking, sea kayak exploring, and cross-country skiing.  Driven to perfection would be an adjective to describe his personality.  

 

​

Q. How did you develop your characters for the books?

A.  Every character was a reflection of one or more friends and associates I have had the pleasure to know or be aware of.  Finn is the reflection of a good friend who has passed on.
