Humorous tales of a small southern town called Bristol. Fables of farmlife and country music. Writing influenced by Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll. Guitars that feud with fiddles. Children who turn into pigs. Church bells that talk. Cornbread that tells the truth. Butter that sings like Hank Williams. Stars that fall to their knees and pray the morning sun will save them. 'We're friends Jack said...I give him the measles. He give the whooping cough.' www.ernestslyman.com
