Synopsis

Funny and wild times make for an enjoyable read one short story at a time in this humorous and entertaining memoir book about getting into mischief while growing up and parenting. Have you ever met the kind of person that people gravitate around to hear a story? If such captivating verbal storytelling were captured in written words that take only two or three pages to tell, made you laugh out loud and want to read aloud to whomever was present, you’ll love, “Here I Thought I Was Normal: Micro Memoirs of Mischief.” These stories are your stories, sort of. And that is why so many people have enjoyed them. The wild, funny and touching tales may trigger memories of your own similar experiences. Others live vicariously through the adventures. Some are appalled at times. The short stories in the collection have curious titles such as Streaking, Gore Orphanage, Wrestling a Bear, Crazy was in the Air, Walk of Shame, Practical Joke Gone Bad and Pleasure Attic just to name several. The 107 real-life micro stories are about growing up and parenting in America from the 1970s to present. It was only as the author grew older, sharing in conversation with others, that he began to realize that perhaps his life wasn’t all that normal. He seemed to have more stories of mischief than most folks. Some pushed the boundaries of comfort. Nonetheless, these short stories left listeners at the edge of their seat asking for more.

À propos de l'auteur

Frank Rocco Satullo has led a life of mischief, often turning the ordinary into an extraordinary experience. His wild, funny and touching adventures come from growing up in the suburbs, serving in the Army overseas and exploring nearly every state. In doing so, he rubbed elbows with all walks of life from the inner city to the über-wealthy. His journey started in a farm town turned boom-town, with frequent visits to urban neighborhoods. He went on to meet others from all over the United States and Europe. He earned a bachelor’s degree and worked his way up the corporate ladder before leaping off with an entrepreneurial idea that produced a successful web site. His adventures continue with fatherhood and suburbia. Through it all, he maintains that balancing responsibility with irresponsibility is critical to success because too much of either will ruin you. You may find that his stories are your stories, mostly.
