edit data

Douglas Fergus is the author of more than one hundred...I mean, more than one book. Quit Honking (I’m Pedaling As Fast As I Can) is his 2nd. He was born in September 1960. His family dwelled in sunny California during the groovy 1960s in his cute little hometown of Sierra Madre. His maternal grandfather was a pun and joke lover who cultivated Doug's habit of noticing the absurd and ridiculous in everyday life.
Early on, Doug developed a fascination with two-wheeled vehicles and all things mechanical and had few other interests.

Douglas Fergus's Blog

First tine for a fork inspector

Hi, I'm sixty years old and have never written a blog.
(Wasn't Steve McQueen in a movie called, The Blog...?)
:-)) Honk, if you're old enough to know why that might be funny.

I don't know what to write in a blog. I'd rather write books that I carefully craft to be funny, charming, quirky, etc.
What about you? Do you love pancakes too?

I read Catch 22 last month for the first time ever in my life. I somehow missed that one during school and my adult life. (I'm 63) I LOVED it. The wit, the humor, the satire, the wordplay. I then went on a Joseph Heller kick. I found and read all I ...more

Full of useful information. A lot of it is fascinating and 'new to me' at 60 years old. I've never strayed too far in expanding my knowledge of alternate healing methods. But I've been dealing with some physical/health issues that seem more mind-base ...more

I ‘discovered’ Sutton 2 years ago when my wife and I stumbled upon the series, Younger. We both fell in love with her. She reminds me of a mix of Mary Tyler Moore and Shirley McClain. When I saw that she had a book out, I knew I wanted to read it. It ...more
