My Four Minute Life

A memoir of seven-plus decades as a human being, in stories, lyrics, philosophies and opinions predicated on a fifty year love affair with songwriting. In this intimate and unflinching exploration of his life, the author offers his observations on creativity and childhood trauma, relationships, personal growth, single-parenting, depression, addiction, recovery, healing, love, redemption and humor; and on the craft, the inspiration, and the business of songwriting.
