Best Friends & Sunset
They weren't just a mother and daughter; they were best friends.
This short story was written for a grieving mother on Christmas Eve who had just lost her 18-year-old daughter to cancer.
Best Friends & Sunsets is a story based on what it would be like to have 10 minutes in heaven with your best friend, for one last sunset together.

Stories that Inspire and Encourage
Words are powerful. They can bring you joy and tears, they can cut you down or lift you up, they can divide or unite, their power is limitless.
I want my words to inspire and encourage, and so Written by Bald Guy Red Tie is my project to do just that. Working with my son, Jack, we have created something we think you will like.
This project is more than just the words. This project is a collaboration to take the many, many words I have written over the past 30 years and turn them into a complete multimedia experience.
Together, Jack and I have created something that we hope will inspire, encourage, and bring the written word to life for you. Enjoy.
