We’re all well-intentioned liars at heart, tale spinners squatting around the fire swapping stories about who we are, why we are, what it all means. We use figurative language to say in words what can’t be said in words because we know sometimes a lie can be the quickest route to the truth.
A portion of all Blacktip Island novel sales goes to the Coral Reef Alliance.
How we ask our questions, and how we attempt to answer them, gives us insight into who we are as individuals and as a people. But if our stories don’t entertain as well, they’re pretty lousy lies. I don’t know how illuminating these stories are, but I’ve made them as entertaining as I could. So if you’re ready for tropical adventure, scroll south and enjoy.
On Wahoo Reef
Wally Breight’s a miserable-in-his-job P.R. executive who dreams of escaping to happily-ever-after in the Caribbean. When he stumbles across a run-down scuba diving operation for sale on Blacktip Island, he snaps it up and settles into paradise. But paradise has other ideas. His dive boat’s a lemon. His business partner proves the age of piracy isn’t dead. Scuba guests are scarce. And a free-spirited dive mistress might party him into an early grave.If Wally can't get a handle on paradise, pronto, he'll be leaving Blacktip Island faster than a coconut in a hurricane.
