Storytelling has long been a staple of the outdoor literature, though in recent years these stories seem fewer and harder to find. Some of these accounts were tales of peril, while others were relatable bits of comedy about the missteps we all make in the outdoors. In the spirit of keeping that tradition alive, Jim Mize has followed up with his own tales of misadventure and mirth, bringing us characters like Beanpole and Grumpy.
If these tales have a touch of credibility, it's because many of these events happened to Jim or people he knew. But he prefers to share them through his characters as fiction, in part, to keep from embarrassing his friends.
The Haunted Outhouse offers that unique opportunity for you to laugh at someone else's expense in the comfort of your own home. Besides being safer, it's a lot less messy.
Jim Mize has been writing humor and nostalgia for over forty years. Most of his work has appeared in outdoor publications including Gray's Sporting Journal, South Carolina Wildlife, In-Fisherman, and other magazines. His stories and books have been selected for over one hundred Excellence in Craft awards, including the Pinnacle Award, the highest award for books from the Professional Outdoor Media Association. His previous books include The Winter of Our Discount Tent, A Creek Trickles Through It, Hunting With Beanpole, Fishing With Beanpole, The Jon Boat Years, and Funny You Asked Me That! Jim writes from his cabin in the South Carolina mountains while his Lab, Moose, keeps the bears at bay.
