    About this ebook

    Two life-long friends are outdoorsmen to the highest degree and have spent almost as much time next to a campfire as in their respective houses.

    When they come home, David and Bower bring wood smoke and tall tales with them.

    Except this last time one of them didn't come back.

    But something else did.

      How to Talk to a Loved One Who Is Suffering

      Apr 15, 2017

      IN THE EARLY weeks after Dave died, I was shocked when I’d see friends who did not ask how I was doing. I felt invisible, as if I were standing in front of them but they couldn’t see me. When someone shows up with a cast, we immediately inquire, “Wha

      Mar 10, 2024

      As I drove slowly toward the mob of angry protestors and my meeting with 200, I thought of 199. The ashes of a once hard man, staring at me with wide eyes that pleaded for hope like a dog begging for treats. I’d somehow found a way to give him that h
