Happily Ever After: A Tribute to Marriage from a Fifty-Year Veteran
As a follow-up to The Old Man, which Writer's Digest calls "a very sweet love story," I've taken a turn at nonfiction, and a subject clearly close to my heart: my own marriage.
I had the good fortune to marry well. Because of that, we were able to celebrate a 50th anniversary not so long ago. That milestone, and what I saw happening to the people I know and to the country I knew, caused me to do a lot of reflecting on the subject of marriage in our society. So much reflecting, in fact, that I had to write a book about it. Read the book description and order the book on the Books page.

Happily Ever After: A Tribute to Marriage From a Fifty-Year Veteran is a rare peek into the nooks and crannies of an honest, real, ordinary fifty-year marriage with extraordinary candor and insight. Del and Colleen’s story rings with sweetness and devotion; a moving journey to be enjoyed. What they have to share with those of us who care about marriage makes their journey all the more special....These fifty-year veterans have much to teach to anyone willing to listen.

Richardson, TexasThis is a well-written and informative addition to the marriage genre. Hayes succeeds in relaying universal truths while maintaining a down-to-earth, conversational tone. I found the wisdom quite accessible and easy to absorb. It is at various moments touching, humorous, and inspiring. Society is in great need of this sort of counsel; there is a definite vacuum on the bookshelves where this approach to marriage is concerned. Not many people make fifty years. We should be thankful that one of them has, and done it so well. Well enough, in fact, that I've instructed our son to read it. Indeed, Happily Ever After should be required reading material for all young men.

Have a love/hate relationship with technical writing? Love having it done, hate having to do it? Let me handle the "hate" part for you. I don’t know that I love it, but I’ve done a lot of it and am pretty good at it. I’ll let you have the "love" part. But not all of my writing has been technical. I also write for fun. You can check out all of my writing here.
Want to know a little more about whom you might be turning all your A/V documentation, or technical writing, over to? Learn all (well, maybe not all, but the relevant parts) about my technical bona fides. As you can see from the picture, I’ve been doing it a long time.
