About Me

When I was in high school, my chemistry teacher approached me and asked with a sly grin, "You interested in mining?" I told him absolutely not. I was going to be a writer. Little did I suspect that he wanted to send me to a student conference on metallurgy where I could seek the fellowship of like-minded teens on a minimally supervised road-trip to the Big City. Undeterred by my abrupt negative response, he grumbled, "Well, you're interested in mining your own business, aren't you?" And he sent me anyway. Now I realize I should've listened more carefully to everything he said. ### Gerald Everett Jones is the author of the Rollo Hemphill series of comic novels, including My Inflatable Friend, the recently released Rubber Babes, and the forthcoming Farnsworth's Revenge.
