                                     Hi’ Steppin  off da Crack                                   

 

This is the original text in the first person of Hi’ Steppin’ called specifically ‘oft da Crack.’ The second version know simply as HI’ Steppin,’ was done because the original text was lost only to reappear on my computer years later. This mystery pales in consideration of the misery this version wrought in creation. It was tortuously pounded out and made me the writer I am today, eighteen books later. Buy either one, they convey the same message whether you are a empathetic sentimentalist or a detached observer of simulated confession.

The First Step:

 Hi’ Steppin

Paul Undres, the baby boomer’s baby boomer. Born to hit college in the nineteen sixties, Paul experienced the hippie counter culture, the Air Force, corporate “normalcy,” but most of all—time on his hands and nothing to do. What could possibly go absurd? Paul’s choices took him on adventures, far and wide. Lots of trials. Lots of tribulations. Life’s absurdities are bad enough, but spice ’em up a bit with drugs and alcohol, and you get—Paul Undres! Yikes!! Eventually, Paul finds himself clear of drugs and alcohol. He comes to see the humor in the stupid things we tend to do. He’s lost the angst of taking things too seriously. Yeah, he doesn’t do that any more. Good thing too, because life’s absurdities go on, as you can probably tell.
