I’m happy to report wrapping up the third Nowlin Road segment of my childhood memoir KID STUFF which I’m calling “Playmate.” It covers my ages 8 to 10 (third and fourth grade) when I started being aware of the larger world and other people in it. What happened in that brief period wasn’t very dramatic but certainly had ramifications for my future life.

I’m also happy to advise that my innocence remained intact in spite of Catholic school, television, an intense friendship, and the overture of a pubescent neighbor girl. Read all about it.
