A retired English teacher living now in Florida, Randy is a dinosaur, born during WWII, raised in west central Indiana in the times before computers and electric cars. In fact, his earliest homes had no electricity or running water, no telephone, no central heating or air conditioning. Those were not the good old days, but those are the times Randy prefers to write about. His first book, Growing Up with Grandpa John’s Son, is a 663-page autobiographical tome being used primarily as a doorstop by the few lucky souls who have read it—or read at it. Shoal Bend is a bit shorter, but also autobiographical in that many of the characters are family members.
