When I moved here to Branson the summer of 2005, I fell in love with this great town and all the great people here who I have met. I got inspired to write my books from various places here in the Branson area. I would go out and sit at Table Rock State Park and write, I would go on a hike in the Lakeside Wilderness and sit at the picnic area and think about writing.
What a beautiful town Branson is and the people here are so nice, it is great to see a town that honors the Veterans. With all the Stars here who perform day after day, and all the workers whom both work so hard to make you feel right at home here, it’s no wonder Branson is among the top destinations, as a vacation favorite. I have many people who believed in me and helped me out in getting this book out to you to enjoy. Once again, I would like to thank them all for what they have done for me.
I would like to Thank "The Titanic” for giving me permission to use their photo of ”The Titanic” for my cover. That meant a lot to me. I would like to thank Art Knight who wrote “Welcome To Branson” and for giving me permission to put his song in my book. In addition, there is Tim Hadler who introduced me to Art Knight. I have enjoyed Tim, and Art, as they are great friends.
I hope you enjoy my book on Branson and the many wonderful things that are here for you to see and do.
