About this item
by Eric H. Heisner (Author), Emily Jean Mitchell (Illustrator)
When Jonathan Tyler Springer, pen name J.T. Springs, takes a break in the Florida Keys to recapture some of his passion for writing, the influence of Key West and thoughts of the Ernest Hemingway lifestyle lure him to stay, much to the protests of his California Literary Agent. Trying to settle into island living, Jon never gets any writing done as he gets involved with the quirks and idiosyncrasies of the colorful characters that make up Key West's environment. From the hang-out saloon, "Conch Republic Tavern", owned and operated by an attractive local woman, to a seaplane pilot whose wild inspirations take him flying across the Caribbean, and a Cuban businessman who believes he should be the successor to Fidel Castro, Jon never has a dull moment and finds he's living the life of adventure instead of writing about it.
