Live Atlanta suburbs with my wonderful wife Katie, 1-year old son Nicholas and a Beagle named Baxter.

Big Jeremy Camp fan. Enjoy a wide range of music, from Lynard Skynard to Norah Jones, if you can believe that. Just depends what rotates around on the iPod.

"The Robe," by Lloyd C. Douglass, is my favorite book of all time. "Magnificent Obsession" is a close second. "Peace Like a River," "Marley and Me," "The Kite Runner" too. Enjoy anything by Don Miller,

Published Works
Groomed (2005)
Groomed is a story not just about wedding planning, but the relationship of an engaged couple from proposal to vows, all told from a groom's perspective. It's 14 months of flower arrangements and guest list bloopers, and a humorous commentary that anyone who's ever been a part of the wedding process can relate to. A couple in limbo for more than a year, a family adjusting to new members, friends watching their relationships change as a wedding nears. Getting down on one knee is merely the beginning.

Tribute (0)
What if a total stranger asked you to give his eulogy? Michael Gavin, football legend, war hero and local philanthropist, has died of cancer. His hometown of Talking Creek is preparing to pull out all of the stops to honor him with parades, a football field dedication and the town's biggest memorial service ever. However, Gavin left one request for his funeral - that local newspaper reporter Wes Watkins, a man he has never met, give his eulogy. What happens next will change the town, and that reporter, forever.

About Graham Garrison
I received some great news this summer from my agent, Terry Burns of Hartline Literary, that my book "Tribute" was being picked up by Kregel Publications. It's a blessing to see a dream coming to fruition, especially in a project and subject that is near and dear to my heart - families of soldiers. I'm a magazine editor and freelance writer with bylines in about six newspapers and 20 magazines. I also self published a book in 2005, "Groomed --Wedding Planning from a Groom's Perspective."

My wife and I are preparing to start a small group at our church. Our church has a pretty large membership base, but for whatever reason, there hasn't been a young couples/with children class. We were part of a young couples class a few years back wh... (login or sign up to read more)

A new life   6/20/2007 - 12:03 PM
My wife and I welcomed our son, Nicholas Scott Garrison, into our lives last week. He's a big boy, 9 pounds, 8 ounces. Needless to say, things will never be the same. And I'm glad for it. There's just an abundance of joy and praise that goes with wel... (login or sign up to read more)

Inspirations?   4/24/2007 - 8:10 AM
I'd be curious to hear from anybody out there in Shoutlife where their inspirations in writing came from? Who, in your opinion, is the best at what they do, and you try to incorporate it into your writing. I jotted down a few of mine. John Grisham... (login or sign up to read more)
