Words From My Mind - Paperback

by Ed Folino (Author)

Ed Folino is a lifelong Pittsburgh resident who some refer to as "The Pittsburgh Poet." His lighthearted poetry has brought a smile to many and now Ed is launching out into a new venture - short stories, some of which are true and some fiction. His stories have the same flavor as his poetry, down-home and humorous with the ability to poke fun at himself and the world around him. If you are looking for light reading that will make you laugh and sometimes bring you close to tears, this book is for you. And if you haven't already, find Ed's other books, Long Time Coming Volume I and II and Growing Up In Pittsburgh. Even if you're not from The 'Burgh, Ed will make you appreciate your own hometown just like he does his.

Author Biography

After writing three books of poetry I finally admitted to myself that most people don't read poetry let alone the four-line end rhyme style that I write. I decided to write a book of short stories. There are many stories in my new book, assorted stories for any ear. I'm a fan of Alfred Hitchcock, so I try to put a twist in every story that I write.
