Journal of an Average American

0/5 ( ratings)

""I was born late and have been slow ever since.
I was supposed to be born in April, but I arrived on June 19.
Explaining my late arrival, the doctor said, 'Somebody made a mistake, ' and I took offense to that."" -Joe Perry

Like life, Joe Perry's stories are a mixture of the sometimes humorous and sometimes serious. They all take place around the same time period as "Forrest Gump" . And like Forrest, the author himself is an average person who has lived a life that is anything but. During his years of military service, he was a messenger for President Lyndon Baines Johnson. During his years of spiritual service as a minister, he was blessed to be called to as a messenger for the King of Kings and Lord of Lords on a higher plane.

"Journal of an Average American" started out as Joe's private journal, but it quickly grew into a book of introspection, punctuated with philosophy, poetry, sermons, articles, laments, and history. Throughout, it celebrates average people as its main characters and source of all knowledge, insight, and humor.

As a common person, writing about common people and their common experiences, Joe Perry was surprised to come to the epiphany that people and their experiences are really very "uncommon" after all.
