About The Author

H. L. Griffen

H.L. Griffen has always been a teller of stories. Whether it was home growing up in upstate New York or his adopted home of South Carolina. He would always have a story about something or someone that happened along the way. They were humorous, sometimes poignant stories from his time as a truck driver, or driving tow trucks and from various other jobs, in garages and sign shops that he worked at over the years. He’d tell stories of co-workers and family, and characters who came from nowhere and went back there just as quickly.

But for most of his professional life as a custom painter, graphic artist, pin striper, and sign painter, for the past 50 years, he shared the stories of his and other’s experiences and with every paint job, there was always a story.

Now, he is telling his stories in a new way. The ones from his mind and his heart. The Legend of Fast Eddie is the first of these stories written for his beloved trucking and racing community.

Who should read this book?

For any driver, or anyone for that matter, that has had to leave home with unfinished business to make a cross country run, be it an argument with a spouse, a missed opportunity with a child or a tragedy of some sort, the load of it that you carry in your head and in your spirit can be heavier than any load you are hauling on or in your trailer. For every mile you drive, there will be a hundred more that you wish you could have done or said something different. The Legend of Fast Eddie addresses some of these issues and shows us that there is almost always a new road back home that you didn’t know about.
