Join me on my first tour of duty in the Navy - what went on in Boot camp, the schools I attended, what life was really like on board an aircraft carrier that was better known for fires than anything else! Come with me on a haze gray and underway misadventure on a guided missile destroyer that had trouble shooting its own missiles (let alone torpedoes) and all of the unimaginable things that happened to me...the people I met and what I witnessed in between. Telling things as they happened, it's a hilarious, serious, yet very straightforward look at life as a Radioman in the U.S. Navy during the Cold War period (1980-1984). So set the sea and anchor detail, it's time to hit the high seas!

"SO THE SIGN SAID is a humorous young adult fiction. The novel’s main character, Jordan Klein, is a precocious seventeen-year-old New York City girl who cracks wise to deal with the world around her. Her mother, Rachel, is a litigator—sharp, refined, and always careful not to spill her gin and tonic on the couch. Her father, Eli, is a professor of divinity, an unapologetic eccentric and, in Jordan’s eyes, a dipsy-doodling disaster. When he spontaneously agrees to pastor a church in podunk Texas for the summer, Jordan’s world is turned upside down. It’s not long before Jordan meets Knox, a gorgeous yet complicated mess, and Bliss, a fun-loving whimsical blonde. Through Knox and Bliss, Jordan discovers the best parts of her new summer home, including the quirky church sign outside her bedroom window. The sign offers advice, provides pun-laden humor, and has an uncanny ability to predict the future—including hers."
