October Song: A Memoir of Music and the Journey of Time

October Song is about and for all who wonder if it's too late to follow a dream. Through his easy conversational tone, David W. Berner shares his heart and soul as if we were curled up together, sipping hot chocolate in front of a fireplace. Like a favorite song, that warm fuzzy feeling lingers on well after the story is done.--Viga Boland, author of No Tears for My Father
With his gift of a no-holds-barred writing style--raw, honest, confessional--Berner succeeds, once again, as a master storyteller. Music can tell the story of our past. Lyrics evoke memories; melodies make the heart thump like it did on a first date. October Song brings the reader through a mix tape of life, as Berner tells his tale of new love while traveling through landscapes and time. Each chapter reads like a beloved song.--Geralyn Hesslau Magrady, author of Lines
October Song strikes all the right chords; the high notes and the low notes of a life's journey--the losses, the lessons, the loves. Composed with tenderness and affection, Berner's heartfelt and ultimately life-affirming joy ride teaches us that you're never too old to roll down the window, crank it up and belt it out.--Randy Richardson, author of Cheeseland, Lost in the Ivy
David W. Berner takes the reader beyond the mid-life crisis to what comes next: rebirth via newfound passion for music, travel, life and a special someone. October Song is a touching story that will inspire anybody of any age searching for meaning in their lives.--Mike O'Mary, Author: Wise Men and Other Stories
