A Morass of Marginal Grammar, Creative Spelling and Sausage Parties

Tom Canbe has spent a lifetime advocating for children of all ages. Born in the midst of Beatlemania, he found great music without even trying. He began playing professionally in the 1970's with bands including Shadow, Burnt Party Host, Just Plain Big and the JackAss Clown Parade. Along the way he has composed and recorded over 2,000 songs, any number of them actually heard by other people. His music has been featured in the soundtracks of several films including Girl Cottage and Carts. Canbe has collaborated on a couple of screenplays as well. The wide variety of occupations beyond music and writing he has endeavored to embrace includes Finance, Real Estate, Seafaring, Construction, Solar Power and Vertical Transportation. His favorite career, thus far, turns out to be subsistence farming. He owns a humble ranch in tropical North America where the jungle gets kissed by the sea. It's quite possible that he will have returned to life off of the grid once again, free of internet service, power lines, city water and cell phone signal by the time you adjust a pair of bifocals upon the bridge of your nose in order to address this, his first published prose.
