I am a single dad with two kids. I am currently working on my next book. I own and operate a tow truck for a living. My kids are my whole world, everything evolves around them. I like to work out and go fishing. Or take my kids to a ball game. I restore old muscle cars in my spare time. Also I love to ride my motorcycle and read books.
T.J. Wray grew up in a small town. He grew up quick and got his first job at only thirteen years old. He knew people depended on him to do his job every day. So for two years he never missed a day. No matter the weather conditions, he always got the job done. He learned responsibility for his actions at a very early age. He was very active in his church and with his youth group. He learned a lot from the positive role models in his church, like his youth pastor and his Sunday school teacher. He didn't drink or party in high school. He was responsible and went to work after school. He got his driver's license at age fourteen and drove himself everywhere, while the other kids still rode the bus. Even though he was a teenager, he was an adult. He said in a small town people wave as they passed by and said hello as they passed on the sidewalk. He said in a small town people 'actually shook hands'. In his teenage years, he was an avid fisherman. He once said he would "rather fish, than breath". There's nothing that compares to hooking a large-mouth bass. He was quoted as saying, "If they don't ride motorcycles and go fishing in heaven, I don't want to go!".
Nowadays, he lives in the Big City. He says nobody knows anybody, and they don't want to. Everyone is always in a big hurry and would rather run over you than wait for one minute for you to move. No one ever seems to slow down and smell the roses or enjoy life, in the big city... He says he really misses life in a small town.
