Thomas Grier lives an interesting life. When his parents died, he fell in love with golf; it led to him making his home course, Pecan Hill, his home. He also has a to play golf professionally. When the new General Manager arrives, Thomas's life is changed forever.
Originally an aspiring professional golfer, Mike Guillen, The Golf Author, turned to writing as a creative outlet after a knee injury sidelined his career. His first book, Professional Golf for the Rest of Us, provides a brief look into what it takes to play the game at a professional level.
The crowning achievement of his publishing career thus far has been his first fiction novel, Stitched. Loosely based on his life as a teenager, the story revolves around a young man's journey from living in a maintenance barn to finding a family and pursuing his dream of professional golf.
He currently resides in his hometown of Phoenix, Arizona.
I kept looking for a golf novel and came across Stitched. I’m a new golfer of three years at 66. I appreciate the difficulty and the love of the sport. Mike was able to show that part of golf in this book and the vulnerability you experience in golf. My husband talks about play the ball where it lies. Just like life, we have to take the experiences and play them as they dome to us. I like all that Thomas came up against and all the opportunities he experienced as well. I hope you write more novels about golf.
Although this is essentially a golf book I highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys reading. It is very well written with great character interaction and a superb plot. Get yourself a copy and I am certain you will be happy b you did.
