Golf Balls plus a Confused Goose Equal Fine Literature
Today NewCity Lit published a piece about a retired mechanic who has taken on creative pursuits, quite successfully, since leaving his job. Among his explorations, a novel, The High-Tech Gooseneck Putter, for children and young adults sprouted, inspired by a news story about a goose collecting and storing golfballs in her nest.
