Synopsis "Gary Knows Things"

Gary is finally retired.Thirty-four years. Two layoffs. One merger. Three colonoscopies. A potluck that ran until nine.Now he's free. He's also up at 5:58 every morning, at war with the HOA, and banned from the kitchen by his wife.Meet Gary: the wise old hemorrhoid in a cardigan who spent his whole career teaching everyone else how to survive work. He retired on a Friday at three. By Monday at nine he had cleaned out the shed, alphabetized the spices, and put a chore chart on the fridge. So his wife Marlene hands him a list of hobbies and shows him the door. Gary tries golf he hates, sourdough that comes out a brick, and a birdhouse no bird will go near, all while his calendar fills up with appointments and Linda, the clipboard-carrying president of Shady Bottoms Estates, rings his doorbell.Told in rhyming verse with warm, vintage-style illustrations, Gary Knows Things looks like a classic children's picture book and reads like the first Monday of retirement. It's a gag gift for the newly retired, the about-to-retire, and anyone whose spouse has started reorganizing the garage.Join one veteran hemorrhoid as he learns that retirement has more meetings than his job ever did. And that a life needs a purpose, not just a calendar.A picture book for grown-ups. Contains strong language. Not for children. Or Linda.Book 2 of Backdoor Books, following Kevin the Hemorrhoid. Each book stands on its own.
