This work is a southern memoir. What that means is that this work is, by definition made up almost but not quite entirely of suspiciously unverified events. It features somewhat exaggerated drama and some very questionable characters. (For the record, I have never actually met Elvis.)This memoir is a roux made of equal parts fact and fiction liberally seasoned with healthy measures of exaggeration, fabrication, and a few outright lies. The story is set in Jonesboro Arkansas and the Mid-South during the years following the devastating tornado that sturck Jonesboro in May of 1973. This story takes poetic license to an absurd, almost criminal extreme. In keeping with the greatest of southern traditions, the Author has never been one to let the truth get in the way of a good story.

From the very start in the dark and haunted halls of an old Arkansas mansion to the exciting end in a deadly battle in a dark and dusty Memphis pasture, "Me, Boo and The Goob: A Southern Adventure" is the hilarious story of three boys struggling to make sense of the adult world. Filled with only the purest of ambitions, the boys careen from mishap to mishap in a story that is as endearing as it is funny. Built on the innocence of childhood, the unshakable trust of true friendship, and courage born of naivety, optimism and good intentions, the boys hunt ghosts, avoid military school, survive a tornado, learn to fish, capture a bank robber and become best friends with one of America's favorite sons. A tale that will have you smiling, maybe laughing, every time you see a small boy for days to come, "Me, Boo and The Goob" is a page turner that you will read twice just to laugh again.
