If you like my stories, please feel free to tell me. If you don’t like them, please quietly keep it to yourself and stop reading them. The metaphorical language spoken by some of my characters may offend some people. I apologize, but those are the words or phrases some people used then, and some still do. A hundred years ago, flowery speech was fashionable. In the fifties and sixties, writers began to use more explicit and offensive metaphors. The Carpetbaggers comes to mind. My writing teachers suggested if I want my readers of today to savor my novel of any era, I should write in the metaphoric words of that time period. Please forgive me if I have offended anyone; it certainly wasn’t intended. My book was written to entertain you. Por favor, perdóname si te he fallado.

This book is dedicated to my wife, Carla L. Wood, who inspired me and encouraged me to write stories.
