Darryll Sherman lives in Pullman, Washington with his wife and their 2 children. He is a licensed Architect and is employed as a Project Manager at Washington State University. In addition, he has his own business doing residential designs in the greater Palouse area. He is a self-taught pianist, song-writer and singer and is involved in the music department at his local church. He grew up in beautiful western Washington and attributes his appreciation of nature to the countless family vacations he took in the Cascades and the surrounding areas. His interests also include carpentry, gardening, fishing, hiking, racquetball and art.

Darryll never intended to be a writer. He will readily, though somewhat sheepishly, confess that his “personal library” consists mainly of “Far Side” and “Calvin and Hobbes” collections, and that if he reads the newspaper, the comics and Dave Barry are his first stopping points. He proudly admits that he enjoys a good laugh and definitely likes to take a light-hearted look at life whenever possible. Hanging out and laughing with friends is one of his favorite pastimes, and it was in the midst of this lifestyle that the idea for this book was conceived. As he came upon a realization that “life was different when I grew up” and as he noticed that he and his friends kept having the same revelatory conversations about “when we were kids” vs. “kids today” his mission became clear: The challenge that he would devote (at least the next three years of ) his life to was to take on the seemingly daunting task of trying to assemble it all into a cohesive and manageable collection of thoughts and opinions, all the while making it something that he would enjoy reading himself.

For what it’s worth, he has added this book to his personal library!
