This book is titled Sandy Sez to follow up on my first paid writing gig. While in high school, Mr. Curtis Sterling, editor, owner, and publisher of the Brownfield News, paid me twenty-five cents an inch for what was intended to be a gossip column from the high school. It was not until my thirtieth high school reunion that I discovered I had had no idea what was really going on in my high school because I was too busy making us sound like Archie, Veronica, Betty, and Jughead. My writing skills improved after I learned to tell the truth.
