Lucy’S Fatal Attraction (ePub)

The author is a latecomer to the game of book writing. His name is Donald Jenkins, and he is retired at the age of seventy-six. He lives with his wife, Sharon, in Eugene, Oregon. At the age of fourteen, Donald left the family home and was basically homeless. Back then, it was called being a hobo. It was just too crowded and noisy at the family den. There was animosity between him and his parents. Many years later, that animosity was resolved, and they had friendly relations until their deaths.

At the age of seventeen, Donald joined the United States Air Force. He was honorably discharged four years later. It was a growing-up experience for him. Some may say he never did completely grow up.

Donald met and married Sharon Streeter in Havre, Montana, while on duty there. They have been married for fifty-eight years. They have three sons and two grandchildren.

Donald spent most of his life in the billboard business. In the very beginning, he was that guy up on a billboard with a brush, pasting the paper to the sign. In short, he was a bill poster. This was for a short period of one year. He moved on to sales and advertising to local merchants. After ten years of sales and management for others, he started his own company. This adventure included leasing land to build structures on. It also involved getting the sign structures built. This was a job where he was personally involved in the role of general contractor. Once the sign was built, it was his duty to find advertisers for the new space. Over the years, he interacted with hundreds of people.

In 2012 Donald sold his billboard interests to other billboard companies. He now spends his time bike riding, getting his weekly massage, and visiting with his now-grown grandchildren, Christina and Anthony. When completely free from writing, visiting, biking, he can be found in his garden backyard, smoking his favorite cigar, Cuesta-Rey Aristocrat. He is a man of few ambitions.
