When I was in high school my parents used to go out to dinner leaving me with my two younger brothers. They would often say tell us a story. So began the tales of Jimmy Jumpferjoy. I would ask them what kind of adventures he would have and they would tell me, it was interactive fun for all of us. I took creative writing in high school and began to write down the stories.

When I was in high school my parents used to go out to dinner leaving me with my two younger brothers. They would often say tell us a story. So began the tales of Jimmy Jumpferjoy. I would ask them what kind of adventures he would have and they would tell me, it was interactive fun for all of us. I took creative writing in high school and began to write down the stories. In college I took English Composition where I improved in my writing, and during a lonely year I spent on Martha's Vineyard without any friends, I began to step inside Jimmy Jumpferjoy's world. A two dimensional character became three dimensional. I hope you have as much fun reading these stories as I had writing them!!!!!!!!!!
Autorenporträt
I heard that writers should write about what they know. Well, I've been having adventures all of my life. Once when I was a kid at Griffith Park, California my mother had me, my brother Derrick and my cousins out for a hike in the hills and we were warned by a park ranger that a lion had escaped from a zoo. So, as we were walking, we saw deer running. My mother said we should walk the same way the deer went because they might be running away from the danger. My girlfriend and I used to mind our own business but we saw something we should not have. (Some guy beat up someone in a car). It was night time, a guy got out of the car we saw, my girlfriend asked are you alright? I noticed that the guy had blood on his knuckles (he was the one doing the punching) so I told my girlfriend lets go, hurry! One summer on Martha's Vineyard I was swimming in the ocean. I didn't know it but I was in a riptide. I was miles from the shore! So, I floated on my back, kicked my legs, and moved my arms parallel to the shore until I made it back. I figured it out by myself. Later on, the news years later they told people to do exactly what I had done. Another Summer many years later I was at Revere Beach Massachusetts. I wanted to take pictures of the sand sculptures. The weather was getting bad, lots of wind and rain. After taking pictures I was leaving when all of a sudden, I was right in the middle of a microburst. My umbrella was pushing me down, a small tree was pushed down so low the branches were on the ground. The wire from my umbrella bent and there was a flash flood when I tried to cross the street in my summer flip-flops. So you see it's easy for me to write about adventures.
