Synopsis

There's not a man alive who loves his children more than John David Hughes loves his three boys. He is in the fight of his life to find his way back to them. If Worms Had Machine Guns . . . a story of life's lessons passed down from one generation to the next. "You take the cards you are dealt and you play your best hand" . . . wise words from a father to a son. It hadn't been easy, but John had always tried to do just that. After tremendous sacrifice to keep his family together, things finally seemed to be on track. No one could have imagined the unexpected tragedy that was about to strike . . . One reviewer wrote, "I 'grabbed' this novel because of the unusual cover and title and was pleasantly surprised as this first-time author 'grabbed' me back, capturing my attention on the first page and holding it until the last. Ms. Daws's book is a page-turner and it kept me up late into the night. I contemplated her characters and their lives long after I finished the read. This riveting family drama/love story made me laugh, it made me cry, and I will never view another sunset the same way again. "Whether young or old, male or female, I highly recommend this book."

Biographie de l'auteur

Sylvia Janice Daws has lived her entire life in the state of Mississippi. With a degree in Banking and Finance from Mississippi State University, she spent her twenty-five year professional career as Accounting Operations Manager and Controller of TEMTCO in Louisville, MS. From the Author: My nephew was in a car accident at the age of nineteen. He had severe brain injuries and was not expected to live. We went through 52 long days keeping a bedside vigil as he lay in a coma. I convinced myself that John knew I was there with him and was aware of his surroundings. When we had our miracle and he awoke, the first thing I asked him was what he remembered. He didn't remember any part of the day of the accident or his time in the hospital until he came out of his coma. I found myself fascinated with the concept of a man in that situation who is aware and who relives his life as friends and family come in to see him. The seed was then planted for my novel and the characters and their lives began to develop and take off from there." My book is about love and life . . . about family and friendship . . . those experiences and relationships that we all share a common bond to. I am thankful each and every day for a life given back to our family, and through it all I have learned some amazing lessons about hope and faith and never giving up no matter what you face. I hope to have passed some of those same lessons along to the reader." The author can be reached by email at ifwormshadmachineguns@yahoo.com or ifwormshadmachineguns@hotmail.com.
