{"product_id":"it-started-ended-bud-grounds-9780984168330","title":"It Started \u0026 Ended: A Story about a Soldier and Civilian Life","description":"Over the years, I have reviewed and edited many types of writing, as well as written many articles for papers and magazines. Creating a Story Line and maintaining a continuing sense of continuity throughout can be a difficult dilemma. However, some authors don't seem to understand or comprehend that...they just can't seem to smell the coffee   Bud Grounds can smell the Coffee   Bud Grounds has enough material to fill several books if he would choose to do so. His writing is informative, yet, interesting, thought provoking. From the beginning of the editing process, his Romantic side could be seen and his writing style is fresh, alive, here-and-now, real life stuff. From the first page, where he admits his trepidation at writing, to the last Romantic paragraph about Sara, the real love of his life, we see him chat about the joys and sorrows of both the Civilian life and the Military life in a plethora of situations, all of which, for those not having ever been in the Military, are both informative and true to the real events of his life.....some of them rather Romantic, some disturbing, some just dumb  His dilemmas with the numerous Civilian jobs he had are occasionally funny, often cute, but always filled with interest. His chatter about his children invoke the typical Grandfather. But the conversations about Sara are always fresher, clearer and you can almost see her  As you engorge yourself in its pages, let your mind travel with Bud as he journeys about - enjoy the trip with him; see and hear what he saw and heard......I did. And I had a good trip ......Hope yours is just as fun and informative as mine. Get a drink, something to munch on, sit back, and.....ENJOY    Dr.David Abe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bud Grounds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0984168338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984168330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Burning Daylight\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.35d","brand":"Bud Grounds","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063597986047,"sku":"9780984168330","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_de9cc78b-4ebc-4c61-ac97-2be0568d3125.jpg?v=1685390511","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/it-started-ended-bud-grounds-9780984168330","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
