Hey there!
Since you took the time to come over here, I'm going to be up front with you. My name's not really Jack Gunderson. That's my pen name. I hope you'll forgive me, because becoming "Jack" has freed me up to tell you about Charlie. I won't do that here, of course. You'll have to read the book about him to meet him.
I've wanted to become a writer as long as I can remember. But I never could quite get to putting anything together.
Then I got this image in my mind of a kid riding his skateboard in front of a school, driving a boy inside crazy. I wondered who they were and what they were going to do for a long time. Now I know. At least I'm learning. And what was supposed to be a simple story about two young men has become something much larger and grittier than I ever imagined. Welcome aboard. If you don't mind a little Idaho mud.
