Wayne D. McFarland

Join Southeast Media Sunrise host Jodi Hockinson as she welcomes Wayne D. McFarland, author of Tales from the Day, Life shaping events that- truth be told – all happened under the heading of “oops.” Tales from the Day is available in Kindle, Audiobook and Paperback.

Wayne shares some very entertaining stories from his book, including the time he pitched a loan shark, how a worm wrecked his business, and how going on a date once involved a plane crash. Wayne McFarland wandered away from a small, mid-western town some years ago.

With no planning at all, his history is one of stumbling into one bog after another from the Dakotas to California, from Pamplona to Paris. His main claim to fame is mostly and surprisingly not being dead, plus getting involved with a lot of strange stuff, usually unwillingly or by accident.

Yeah, this indeed is a memoir of sorts, if shark fishing in one’s underwear, roping a bear, getting drunk with your Grandfather, or losing ten grand at the Hollywood Sign is a memoir. The Day Johnny Cash Hit On My Wife is on the roster as well, for the only name drop in all the stories. There’s also a thing about getting shot in Arkansas and a road trip with a monkey. These life-shaping events all happened under the heading of “oops.”
