We all hear the term, Pay-It-Forward, but how often do we get a chance to do something for someone else selflessly?
Today, I take the opportunity to tell you about a RAVE REVIEWS BOOK CLUB Author, Larry Landgraf.
Larry lives a fascinating life. He was born and raised on the Texas Gulf Coast in the swamp country of the Guadalupe River Delta. Larry has spent his entire life dealing with nature. He is at home with snakes, alligators, and every other swamp critter. In fact, a rattlesnake which crossed his path the other day is now a hatband. Larry started hunting and fishing to provide for his family while still in elementary school. He can build stuff with raw materials and make things work. Larry is a survivor by necessity. And, he is an author.
He has a brand new book of true stories. And, it is my honor to tell you about it. Psst, don’t tell Larry because he doesn’t know I’m doing this. 🙂
Blurb: Tales from the Riverside tells true and unique stories about one man’s struggle with alligators, snakes, killer bees, and hordes of nasty critters on a daily basis in his swamp. Experience the danger without the need for professional medical services. Life in a swamp is not for everyone.
One reviewer said, “Tales from the Riverside, is a refreshing group of stories that you will relate to if you are not a born and raised a city dweller. If you are a city dweller, you will enjoy the stories, because Author Larry Landgraf writes with candor and humor as he shares his life on the Guadalupe River in Texas.”
This book is available on Amazon as are all of Larry Landgraf’s books.

Larry is a supportive member of the RAVE REVIEWS BOOK CLUB and will have an Author Booth at the upcoming RRBC Writers’ Conference & Book Expo!

Love the end of the blurb: “Experience the danger without the need for professional medical services. Life in a swamp is not for everyone.” Um, yeah. LOL. I think I would prefer reading about it rather than living it. Congrats to Larry on another release!
