About William L. Ingram:

William resides in the Tampa Bay area of Florida with his wife Susan, a retired music and elementary school teacher. Having found each other after both were widowed, they enjoy an active life together along with their black & white cats, Mitzy, and Mollie.

William's first book, an independently published memoir titled: FINDING HEAVEN IN THE DARK, became a multiple Award Winner in 2017! During the beginnings of the 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic, Mr. Ingram was stricken with Post Herpetic Neuralgia, the painful and debilitating aftermath that followed an attack of SHINGLES in his left eye! Following months of PAIN MANAGEMENT THERAPY, he discovered Low Content Publishing as a way to direct his creative energy. ...more

Please forgive me for being so tardy in responding to your questions! I haven't checked my Author Page in quite a while.
To answer your questions in order:

I did eventually return to L.A. and tried to continue with my musical interest, but after 9 months I returned to CT. to be with a girl I had met. This answers questions 1 & 2.

I don't attend church, although I have gone when invited and for other reasons. I still have a strong resistance to "Churchianity", but I don't berate people about it. I actually believe that Church organizations still serve a useful purpose and are part of God's plan. Man's Pride and confusion have created all the religions and denominations that exist. The modern church should be more like a spiritual hospital or a walk-in clinic where broken and wounded people can find others to help them find healing and point them in the right direction. Sadly they want to turn seekers into "club members" and clones! Once you find the Light of Christ and God your intuition and conscience will guide you if you are committed to self-honesty and repentance!

Thank you for your questions and for reading my book!

Bill Ingram

The aftermath of my birth in 1949 and the decision by my mother and Grandmother to allow me to grow up without that knowledge effected my troubled teen years profoundly. The web of deceit and evasion was never meant to be malicious, but my life view confusion was still the outcome. The happy ending never happens but I grow and learn to forgive all of us for being human.(less)

CAN PEOPLE CHANGE?

“NO, I don’t believe people can change,” said the other character in the
T V program I was watching, “but I have seen it happen,” he added with a smile.

People can change for the better, but so few do. You know the ones I’m talking ab Read more of this blog post »
