About the Author

The author faced this fear as a young boy and soon found out things are just not that bad with glasses. The author started wearing glasses at the age of 6 and continues to wear glasses to this day.

The Author was born and raised in Southwest Louisiana. The family roots dates back to some of the original Cajun settlers of the new land and includes a geography which encompasses all of area. The deep, rich heritage included oral, French, cultural, religious and family traditions. From this grew a deep sense of enjoyment for listening and sharing stories and the culture. One such indicator of his deep heritage is his Cajun nick names given to him as a child; Nonc Patout, Nonc Poolou...both are worn with equal pride and enjoyment.
