​After a successful forty-year business career that took him literally around the globe, Andrew B. Louis retired to focus on his passion for writing. Originally, sharing draft novels only with friends and family, he was encouraged to offer them to a broader audience. Andrew is quite eclectic in his choice of topics: always fictional but with believable real-life situations, some based on personal experience, others simply imagined. A researcher at heart, Andrew includes many details from his research of places and things, but he never pretends to reflect actual realities. For this, the reader must decide: is this real or imagined?

The world is a mess. I thought it needed a book that was fun and easy to read. This book is it.It takes you through the tears and terrors of childhood, the mess-ups of middle school, and a raft of stupidities that can only come from that swamp called adolescence. I will have succeeded if the book releases your own memories from days gone by.
​
“It’s lively, personal and savvy, lled with characters that will either make you gasp with recognition (between laughs), or inspire you to celebrate the cast
of your own life.”
