    About this ebook

    In times of quiet desperation, which sooner or later we all experience in this thing called life, we need to find a refuge. Well, I just found mine. No, it's not Shangri-La, El Dorado, or any of those other pseudo paradises. It's Mayberry, R.F.D.

    Author

    T. J. Robertson

    Although I’ve made my living as a teacher and guidance counselor, I’ve always had a passion for writing. Thomas Bouregy and Company published my novel, Return to Paradise Cove, under their Avalon imprint. Two of my one-act plays, A Different Kind of Death, and The Flirt, have been produced, respectively, in New Haven, Connecticut, and Sacramento, California. Short stories of mine have appeared in commercial magazines such as Action and True Romance as well as in certain literary and professional ones.
