Six Brief Memoirs
What kind of writing can you get done in three days? David Macpherson wrote a memoir in three days. He liked it so much, he did it five more times. What you have in this book are the six small memoirs he wrote in three days a piece. You will learn about the ins and outs of being a Rocky Horror kid. Or you experience a youth remembered in reference to the TV shows he watched. How about a small memoir about reading books while walking the dog? That's there too. David wrote of the difficulty of being a young special needs teacher working with aggressive students. There is one about watching flicks at a movie theater during the Covid Pandemic. And finally, David created a memoir/manual about how to write a memoir in three days. All different topics, all just one person. Written with honesty, humor and warmth, these little glimpses at person can let you see the whole.
Here Be Dragons
"Here Be Dragons is a wonderful little gem of a book. It's clever, it's funny, and it's just so heart-breakingly wholesome." The Fantasy Inn A mid-life crisis, a castle gardener, an unfaithful steed, a dastardly hero, a merciless king, and a dragon that needs saving. With heroes this bad who needs villains... When Orus graduated from the Cromalot School for Heroes he was ready for a life of glory and adventure. But after being seduced by his first damsel in distress, he quickly learns the heroing life doesn't bring in the steady income required to raise a family. Twenty years later, with his son all grown up and his waistband all grown out, a favour for a friend gives Orus one last shot at the life he always wanted. But any old hero can slay a dragon, this old hero has to save one. Perfect for fans of authors such as Sir Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, Here Be Dragons is an action packed, comic fantasy full of unexpected heroes, dastardly villains, chases, escapes, questionable employment practises, ill-fitting trousers and an ill-tempered donkey (as if there was any other kind).
How to Write Every Day
How do you write every day? For David Macpherson, he has not missed a day of writing in five years. Every day in those years, he has written at least 200 words a day. It is not a lot of words, but when looked at for an entire year, it becomes a good amount of writing. David goes through his small journey into being a more prolific and consistent writer. He offers some advice, but also shows his story and beliefs about writing that helped him. This is a swift look at how one person finds the way to write enough to put out books and feel satisfied with what he creates. Is this a memoir masquerading as a How-to-write book? Or is it a How-to-write book pretending to be a memoir? It's up to you to decide.
A Tale of Two Cities
Former Scotland defender Dave McPherson is the only player to have twice worn the light blue of Rangers and the maroon of Hearts. This book gives an account of his 15 years as a professional, in which he takes readers inside Tynecastle for a behind-the-scenes story of the Mercer years, the managers he's played under, and an insider's view of the club's resurgence under Jim Jeffries. He tells of life under Ibronx legends John Grieg and Jock Wallace before he was an early victim of the Souness revolution. His return to Ibrox under Walter Smith brought another league championship and the coveted Treble. This book provides an often humorous look at the contrasting fortunes of two of Scotland's biggest clubs.
The Virtues of Limits
This work explores the place of limits within a well-lived human life and develops and defends an original account of limiting virtues, which are concerned with recognising proper limits in human life.
