I love writing, literary, and golf. I have 8 grandchildren. One is in New York studying to be an opera singer, one is in engineering, another in pre-law, etc. They have varied interests. I am presently writing a non-fiction book about a drug king-pin who made over $400 million in two years. My interviews with him keep life interesting.
I HAVE A NEW BLOG TO DISCUSS MY EXPERIENCES AS I RESEARCHED FOR MY NEW BOOK, A SPECIES OF INSANITY, ABOUT A FORMER DRUG KINGPIN. YOU WILL FIND IT A FASCINATING INSIGHT INTO A FAR DIFFERENT WORLD, INCLUDING CRIME, OUR PRISON SYSTEM, THE INJUSTICES OF THE JUSTICE SYSTEM, ETC. THE SITE IS WWW.DICKSBOOK.NET or richardbiggsbooks.com
I knew Maxine from volunteering under the bridge. I knew her heart for the people we served there and that it came from her relationship with Jesus, but I didn’t know where it stemmed from. This was such a good book about her life and about how having a dream and determination to help others can turn into something bigger than yourself.
This is a stirring story of a remarkable woman . She has a deep abiding Faith that is demonstrated by her works. It renews your faith in God and humanity.
