12 Things (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781470193287)

Our first time author, Ron Benton (that's me) is, in general, pretty clueless about relationships. BUT, for some silly reason I wound up being the guy with a ton and I mean a TON of romantic ideas rolling around in my otherwise crazy head. And surprisingly enough, I lived my life thinking that every other guy walked around thinking the same and doing the same things I do. That was UNTIL...a group of my female friends said, "Oh, no no no!! None of us have EVER had any guy do the stuff you're talking about." I couldn't believe it! So, after a few long talks over cocktails (okay, they were buying so it was a bunch of cocktails) they prodded me into writing down some of my ideas and after almost 4 years of learning how to self-publish a book (don't even get me started on what a nightmare that is) 12 Things is finally here for you to help remind the very special woman in your life, how ridiculously cool she is. Guys, you are not going to believe how easy this is and ladies, this is a great gift for your husband, boyfriend, dad or any other guy in your life who could benefit from being a little more thoughtful. The world could always use a little more of that, right? Actually, he's going to like it no matter what, because being a guy, I understand that lots of pics of pretty girls will keep them interested, so I added plenty of 'em. As for me personally, I'm a radio guy in Oklahoma City. I do a Sports Talk morning show 6-9:30 CST on The Sports Animal 98.1 FM. You can grab the app at thesportsanimal.com and I also do the afternoon show 4-6 P.M. CST on a Classic Rock station 96.9 BOB-FM. (yes, I agree, they are working me far too hard) You can check this show out at 969bobfm.com I moved to Oklahoma City from my hometown of Baltimore in 1994 thinking I'd be here for about 5 minutes but just fell in love with the place. Except for the tornadoes, earthquakes and droughts, it's seriously a great place to live. The people are absolutely amazing! Anything else you'd like to know, just hit me up on Facebook. Enjoy the book!!
