Sometimes it pays to slow down and listen.

Today’s bonus featured author is US Veteran, Truck Driver, and Grandfather, Lonnie Lesane. Lonnie and I talk about how he started writing in the 7th grade, finding the confidence to publish his work, and more!!!

 

Key Thing’s You’ll Learn:

What it was like to finally publish his book at 55.

What inspired Lonnie to become a writer.

His plans for future books.

Why he published a Children’s book first instead of a book of poems.

His advice for other fathers who want to creatively express themselves
