Journeys: Select Writings by Ned White

by Ned White

A memorial collection of poetry, a short story, photography and selections from six years of Maine author Ned White's writings on food, travel, science, humor, health, philosophy, aging, and more, edited by his wife Carla. "Writers such as Ned share everything of themselves and help us to see the world in ways we miss from our own perspective. That is the gift he gave, there was no holding back or trying to deceive — it was all there as a perspective and an invitation to find all the good that exists even when the experiences seem to say otherwise. We are lucky to have someone like Ned cross our paths for a minute or a lifetime, a man who cared deeply and shared selflessly."
-- From the eulogy of Dave Miramant, State Senator of Maine

About the author

I've been writing steadily since college - novels, stories, plays, poetry, and teleplays (including several programs for PBS, HBO, and local TV). I also construct crossword puzzles for the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and other publications.

My first novel, THE VERY BAD THING, was published by Viking Penguin, sold modestly, earned some good reviews. Since then I've had several fine agencies representing new work, but ultimately (spring 2009) I chose to self publish three novels I've written over the last several years.

CALLING OUT YOUR NAME is an adventure story for young adults, set largely in the Deep South in the recent past: a rural Georgia teenager sets off on an improbable journey to find his developmentally disabled younger brother, who's apparently run away.

PLACE is adult literary fiction... about a woman who disappears, quite literally.

STRING THEORIES, to be republished in March 2016, is also adult literary fiction - a "physics love story" and adventuresome romp set in New Mexico.

BILLY BUCK is harder to described. Take a look at t.
