I'm a writer in the romantic vein that I use my life experiences in my writing. You'll find me in the pages of my books, from the semi-autobiographical Becoming Angel, the archetypes in Stranger Souls, hero, Messiah, star, drunk, to my adventures in Los Angeles in The Last Stage.
THE LAST STAGE-Michael Gray is an aging professional student looking for a way out of a small town, and away from a girlfriend who increasingly wants more from him. Inspired by friends who tell him he looks like Jim Morrison he sidetracks a band on their road to fame, and together they experience the exhilaration of being a Rock 'n' Roll band on tour, from the long hours, the agents, the travel, the groupies, record company executives and the growing ego of Michael Gray, until they're offered the gig of their Rock 'n' Roll dreams!NOW AVAILABLE!

I just wanted to let you folks know that it is a terrific book, and very well written. If you haven't been prompted to buy it, I'd add my recommendation that you do as well. Very enjoyable. Winona Hansen-Olsen, Literal Translations Magazine
Novelist Jim Cherry gets high marks for clarity--it's immediately obvious that his The Last Stage aims for the transformative Dionysisan magic embodied by Doors singer Jim Morrison...Levi Asher, Editor, litkicks.com
Stranger Souls-Is a fragmentation of a personality, mine. I am the killer, the vampire, the drunk, the lover, the star. As are you. The farther I go inside, the further I reach out. Includes The Softest Metal, Are You Safe?, When The Butterfly Screamed, Gothics, The 10,000th Chimpanzee. 15% OFF if you buy now!
Stranger Souls by Jim Cherry is a collection of short stories that implores the reader that these stories are his or her own. That in fact these words are not Jim's but somehow stolen through the ether and adopted as his own. Jim's use of imagery invokes the reader to think that indeed these weird scenes are their own, told via a third disembodied voice. That somehow this author has crept inside their mind and plastered their experiences to text. It's this type of writing that sets Jim's work apart form others. Michael White, The Doors4Scorpywag, The Doors online fanzine.
Becoming Angel-John Beckett is a man on the run, from himself. He's successfully kept the chaos of his life in check, and like anything with a precarious balance, one variable can throw everything into disarray, the variable John Beckett never counted on; falling in love. 15% OFF if you buy now!
Jim Cherry's Becoming Angel is an absorbing novel of angst, lost love, and hard choices. John Beckett is a man caught between the love of two women, one who ardently pursues him, and one who has spent time in a mental hospital. Anguish, relationships at an emotional crossroad, and life on the edge finally culminate in a life-or-death decision in an emotionally compelling, contemporary character piece.

Question:
i've read "No One Here Gets Out Alive", "Light My fire" (a couple times), and "Riders On The Storm"
What others do you suggest that talks about formation and the creation of songs and early days of the band and other touring stories.
thanks

Thanks for the comment. I try to put only the grooviest of pics up. I too have found that most people I try to turn on to Bubba Ho-Tep, just don't seem to get it. Oh well, their loss. I did check out your Doors Examiner articles and I dig 'em. I am looking into scoring a copy of THE LAST STAGE... it sounds fascinating. Anyway, it's great to make your acquaintance.
