Nostalgic, Real Life Stories of Zany Adventures and Great Friends Appear in a New Creative Nonfiction Book – “Ridin’ Around”

Dublin, Texas (I-Newswire) December 18, 2010 - Ridin’ Around, Taillights in Chrome, 8-Tracks on Wheels… is the almost totally true tale of when gas was cheap, cops were allowed to have senses of humor, and all college-age kids needed to have fun was music, friends and wheels. In 1980, riding up and down the “drag” in a car with an 8-track player blaring rock and roll music was the backdrop for wild antics and the pursuit of having a good time.

Ridin’ Around takes the reader to a simpler time, when fast cars and adventurous kids cause all kinds of harmless havoc. Memories were used to create “Ridin Around”—real memories from real people. Elaine Fields Smith has provided a medium where the reader can laugh, feel good, and perhaps remember great times in his own life.

Ms. Smith likes to say, “Almost everything in the story is true, but it all may not necessarily be historically accurate…” Using “literary license” allowed Ms. Smith to mold several stories which occurred over a two year period and in various locations into a cohesive storyline
