Icy Sidewalks

Sometimes life is like walking down an icy sidewalk—if you don't watch your step, you could end up flat on your face.

Former rock star, Eric Taylor, considers himself an expert at plunging down the icy sidewalks of life. His hard rock band Pepper & Ice broke up amid conflicts and resentments just as they achieved major success with their debut album Mass Media. Rather than pursuit his music career any further, Eric left his music aspirations behind and married rock 'n' roll groupie Sarah Livingston.

But for Eric and Sarah, marriage was difficult—men are from Mars and women are from Venus—and all that stuff and Eric finally walked out on their ten years of sharing the same bed with Sarah, traversing the same lies, as they beat each other into emotional pulp—it was definitely not a marriage made in heaven.

And now, after two years of separation, Sarah suddenly reappears in his life, stirring up a hornet's nest of emotions and feelings he thought he'd gotten over. At the same time, an unexpected reunion with his former band mate, drummer Carl Pepper, leads to misunderstanding and confusion as Eric's past as a musician suddenly reclaims his present and changes his future.

About the Author

I read somewhere that a writer needs to write and discard a million words before they have even a minimal grasp of the craft. Having written and discarded my million words and now well into my second million (or third), I've discovered that fewer words get deleted and the right words do come more readily ... which is a relief since it takes a long time to bear fruit that is luscious and tasteful and something you want to share with others, especially when writing novels.

My writing experience includes articles for local publications, from business to entertainment, corporate newsletters and a couple years as editor/publisher of a local entertainment weekly. I'm also a closet musician, graphic designer and I never went to college or university (lucky me).

Writing novels is not a new experience, but one that has taken up much of my spare time over the years. There's something special about having a new character you hadn't planned on suddenly impose his/her way into your story just when you need them. It's a magical moment of creation that is difficult to beat as a life experience.

I firmly believe that, along with writing your first million words, being an avid reader is the best training for any aspiring writer. Thus I thank all the authors who've inspired me to write over the years, especially my idol, William Goldman (Marathon Man, Princess Bride, Boys and Girls Together, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, etc.—yes, THAT guy) who still unconsciously influences my writing style, though I'll never admit it, so please don't tell anyone, okay.
