Ole Buford

About the Book

Every fisherman/fisherwoman dreams of catching the trophy fish. They have to go to where the fish are; in this case, Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. Jack Thorne from Ohio buys a house in a remote town on the bank of this great lake. He finds this town economically depressed, and due to his compassionate nature, he decides to combine his fishing goal to an additional goal of improving the conditions of the town. On his arrival, he spots the huge flathead catfish meandering along the cliffs and tries desperately every method he can devise for more than eight years. And in this course of time, the catfish continued to grow to a record-breaking size. He dubbed him Ole Buford.

About the Author

AFTER EXPERIENCING WRITING CONTRACT PROPOSALS AND A FEW MANUELS, I TRIED MY HAND AT WRITING A SHORT STORY AND A FEW CHILDREN'S BOOKS. I FIND IT MORE REFRESHING TO WRITE NOVELS WHERE I CAN EXPRESS MYSELF IN THE DETAIL WHERE A READER CAN PUT THEMSELVES INTO THE STORY AND CAN'T WAIT TO TURN TO THE NEXT PAGE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. I TRY TO INCORPORATE ENOUGH REALITY ALONG WITH THE FICTION TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE REAL LIFE EXPERIENCES THAT THE READER WILL IDENTIFY WITH. L. Wilson
