About the Book

My Early Years: The first 60 years or so... by Glenn Flenniken, Age 95: This delightful allegory of narrative poems by Glenn Flenniken unravels his early years in Santa Barbara, El Monte, and finally at Blythe, California where the family farmed. Glenn's style frequently uses dialect of the time and/or area.His memorable stories begin at school, before the depression, describe his roles as a newspaper boy trying to make some spending money during hard times, and continue as he wins a position as an attendant at Interstate "Truck Terminals." It furthers until he joins the Navy at age 17 and goes on to reveal his early exploits and fortunes, good and less so, in the service.These lyrical stories take you through time and Glenn's life using his unique style, insights and wit. The work, both personal and historical, reveals from the perspective of someone who lived the adventures imaginatively and still is enjoying every moment at the age of 95.As one of the last remaining representatives of his generation who remembers the depression, WWII, the Korean conflict, and so much more--you owe it to yourself to take it in. There won't be too many more "real-life" stories like this.Glenn is both a founding associate of The Manor Publishing Collective (MPC) and its most senior member. The MPC was originated by Sunny J. Baker in 2019. This collective is a new style of publishing organization, exclusively for seniors over 65. The initiative brings former authors and would-be authors together to share their ideas, experiences and creativity with the world-but doesn't require the seniors to learn the technologies of the 21st Century to make it happen.Sunny, using her background in computers and experience writing 28 traditional non-fiction books, produces the books, designs the covers, and completes the marketing. She even contributes a book or two. The other members of the collective, all over 65, are simply free to write and create!The shared royalties earned by the collective authors are exactly that-shared by all members of the collective and also donated in part to the residents' association at St. Paul's Manor, the 60-year-old building that houses the MPC and also needs some serious upgrades. Please support these incredible seniors and their community by looking for and reading all the publications by MPC authors!
