Overview

There are no Death Stars or sparkling vampires in this book, or enchanted swords, or mushy, six-hanky chick lit tales. No. Instead, there is lots of mud, dirt, animal hair, the smell of dead worms baking in a hot car, and maybe a giggle or two. Come along on these six zany 99 44/100th percent true tales of the outdoor life. Action! Adventure! Fishing! Horses! Little sisters! The perfect bathroom book for those longer.... breaks.

DEER WARS: "Shoot zee deer, Terra. Vhy are you not shooting zee deer? Zhey are eating mein garten! Kill zhem all!" What happens when you have a landlord determined to eliminate an entire species from Tewksbury Township.

FIRST BASS: I undergo Bass Basic Training.

SHERRY AND THE RACCOONS: Have a hair-raising time with the Moffat sisters on safari in the wilds of northwesternmost Sussex County, NJ.

A GOOD HORSE: He was skinny. He made ugly faces. He was free, and he was my first horse.

CAMPING WITH MOM: A lifetime legacy of memories.

About the Author, Terran Moffat

Terran Moffat (nom de plume) has worn many hats. Listing them all here would take a novel in itself. Presently, she's a freelance book designer, illustrator, editor, and author.

"First Bass and Other Stories" offers a brief glimpse into a few actual events and incidents of her younger life. Or, as the author calls it "her previous life." She's looking forward to the opportunity to have new adventures (or misadventures) in the near future.

She presently lives in the U.S.A.'s "Land of Ten Thousand Lakes" (and LOTS of bass) with an opinionated Quaker parrot named Apple (who has his own blog and facebook page), a rescued Senegal parrot named Sir Hugo the Naked, a younger sister (of Sherry and the Raccoons fame), and said sister's husband, who is a lifetime bass fisherman and turning pro in the next year.
