The writing bug hit again in middle-age and resulted in Natural Michigan: A Guide to 228 Attractions. Over the years seven more books found their way into print. All adhered to a rule I discovered while writing Natural Michigan: Write about what you know and love. In my case that was Michigan. My fascination with the state stemmed from a childhood of camping across the state, trips Up North, and into the U.P. At CMU I was required to take a course on Michigan history in which the amount of supplemental reading determined one's grade. The more I read about Michigan, the more I wanted to read.
