Laughter Rides Shotgun
is a collection of short stories pulled from
songs, shop talk, back roads, bad decisions,
good intentions, and the kind of humor that shows up when life has
already dented the fender. Some stories lean
funny, some lean thoughtful, and a few may remind you of
somebody you know — whether you admit it or not.
Written in a plainspoken, blue-collar voice, this book is for readers
who like their stories with a little grease under
the fingernails and a grin hiding behind the lesson.

A few lines from the ride…
“He had all the confidence of a man who had not yet read the
instructions.”
“The truck rode like a duck boat in a hurricane, but he called it
progress because nothing important had fallen off yet.”
“Some folks learn from mistakes. He preferred to lease his by the
dozen.”
