MY TEASE

From The Swamp Creature Let One In

“What do the golf gods say about this sonofabitchin’ hole today, Willet?”

.
Willett took the toothpick out of his mouth. “There ain’t no golf god rules on this hole, Balls. This here’s the Swamp Creature’s territory.”

SYNOPSIS

Margaritaville may not appear on a map, but it does exist–at least in the brilliantly creative, sometimes slightly skewed imagination of Jimmy Buffett. Tales from Margaritaville is a collection of short stories (some purely fiction, some based in truth) so vividly packed with restless dreamers, wild wanderers, and pure gypsy souls that just reading it is a wild adventure. Travel along with a cowboy named Tully Mars, as he heads from Heartache, Wyoming, to Graceland, and relive the autobiographical odyssey of a third-generation sailor and first-rate musical outlaw. With unforgettable stories that present the true roamer’s twin loves–the sea and the road–Tales from Margaritaville is one “smooth sailing book of infinite imagination” (Chicago Sun-Times).

  2. Although I’d listened to Jimmy Buffett through high school, I was thoroughly indoctrinated into parrot head culture (?) when I lived in Mexico on a sailboat. Yachties (how us boat people referred to ourselves) would exchange cassettes (I know, I’m dating myself) and most of them were of the Buffett persuasion. Even now, every time I hear one of his songs, I’m back on the boat, sipping a cocktail in the hammock out on deck…Ahhhh….

    • Parrotheads forever! I think it will be quite the trip. I have read a couple of his books and loved them. He is a very interesting character.

    • He is not only a writer, but a famous singer and songwriter. Thanks for dropping in.

  6. This sounds good. I like collections of short stories as you can tell by my teaser this week, Trigger Warning by Neil Gaiman. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing and for coming by.
