In Life Without A Net, author, Don Severance, has drawn upon interest in music and sports to present seven stories of challenge and compassion. The adventures are realistic and entertaining. Dr. Severance begins each story based on his life experiences, then enlarges the themes into dramatic works of fiction. The reader will encounter many interesting characters and the challenges they face. Love of humanity is expressed in the genuine compassion that is offered to heroes and villains alike. His maturity, and breadth of education, allows him to weave important life lessons into each tale. Out of respect for the hundreds of students who have enriched his life, Dr. Severance has written this collection to be enjoyed by teens and adults equally. It only remains for you to come along for the ride.
