From Montana: A Coming of Middle Age Story is a humorous, brutally honest autobiographical account of Garth Gerhart, a 40-something, rule-abiding family man, who finds himself struggling with a past he can’t face, a present he can’t stand and a future he can’t imagine.
When his estranged father dies, Garth's battle with regret, fear and anger take him down a dark path as he reluctantly returns to Montana to lay his father, and his past, to rest.
Along his journey, Garth discovers truths he’d never known and a family he’d never met. As he gets further from the safe harbor of his former life, he must venture to unexplored places within himself to find his way home.
I am a professional graphic/web designer with an alias-sounding, alter-ego superhero name. I can't see through walls, but I do over 20 years of experience that brings my client's vision in to a viable and marketable product. Or, in layman's terms - I make them look super.
I am also a seasoned illustrator, who is most notably known for my decade's work in the pages of Mad Magazine with my original comic, "Bitterman".
Lately, I have been more into dissecting what it means to be creative through the sharing of the human experience with thoughtful and poignant analysis. In layman's terms - I am trying to be a writer.
