Tracy's Story
Hi everybody -- I was a school newspaper and creative writing geek at MHS, went on to a 20-year newspaper-reporting career, working for the U.S. Air Force and for half a dozen daily and weekly newspapers in Washington and Wyoming.
In November 2013, I published an Amazon/Kindle e-book, a 190-page memoir about my Dream Job, working for Boise's Musicworks record store chain from 1979-1981. The book is called GUARANTEED GREAT MUSIC! and you can find it by punching in the title or my name at Amazon.com's Kindle Store.

tough life lessons I learned during my newspaper career.... The newspaper memoir was published as a Kindle e-book just before Christmas of 2013, it's called THE CONFESSOR. Early in April 2014, I finished my third e-book memoir about 10 years working in a gas-station/convenience store, it's called THE GAS NAZI! All these e-books are available at Amazon.com's Kindle Store for $2.99 -- so if you've got a Kindle, look me up! I also write for an Internet blog two to a dozen times each month -- the blog is at tadsbackupplan.blogspot.com/, and is mostly reviews of Strange Music and books.
Have two kids, both grown-up, have been married and divorced, and am currently living in western Washington, though I plan to move Back Home soon.
Best wishes to all!
