James and his band of less-than-lucky friends and family are at it again! Get ready for the laughs in the first volume of a special series from the Beers News & Story Brews newsletter.
Laughs & Spooks, Volume 1 begins with Robby's unique attempt at cooling off using toothpaste and continues with a slew of harebrained, unfortunate, and even spooky adventures ranging from an honest-to-goodness ghost story about a grandma specter to the author's electrifying efforts to heat a turtle pool.
Experience the trepidation as you listen to Verl recount the horrifying yet humorous visit to Hogle Zoo's hippo paddock. Feel James's inner struggles as you read about his hilarious journey into the fine art of wooing through social dance. Finally, try not to laugh as James retells the story of the rocket with a mind of its own as well as the tale of his nightmare deep tissue massage at the meaty hands of Helga the cowhand masseuse.
James D. Beers is a native Idahoan raised on a healthy dose of time in the woods. He loves ice cream, steak, and driving questionable two-track roads in the wilderness. Presently he lives in Utah with his wife, Jenna, and son, Joseph.
Between five- and seven-years-old, he used to don chaps and a plastic cowboy hat while riding his stick horse outside Boss the Cow's pasture, daring himself to cross the fence and do some real cow roping. When he was eight he wrote his first story-a five-pager about an Indian named Run Away Bear.
During the 1980s he fell in love with his friend's Commodore 64 computer and played a lot of Oregon Trail and Where in the World Is Carmen San Diego? Also during the 1980s, he watched the movie Space Camp and launched and lost a couple dozen Estes rockets.
By the time he was ten, James's parents had purchased a membership at the local pool and he took an interest in radio controlled submarines and poisonous octopi. In his pre-teen years, with a mile of yarn and a few hundred tacks, James figured out how to open and close his bedroom door, turn the lights on and off, shoot intruders with darts, and wake up his little brother just by pulling a few strings.
In his early-teens, James came off an undefeated basketball season, scoring nearly 100 points for his eighth-grade team. Then he signed on with a church basketball team and lost every game for the next three years. At that point, James decided to give archaeology and writing serious thought.
By the time he was a junior in college, his professors had convinced him that creative writing was nearly impossible and that archaeology was only slightly less difficult. So today, James sits at a desk and writes technical papers about ancient peoples' trash (aka, archaeology).
Until recently, James
Currently, James resides in northern Utah with his awesome wife, exceptional son, and maximum allowed distance between home and the Farr's Ice Cream shop (three miles).
