heard of Gern Blanston? Yes, it is spelled correctly. This Gern Blanston story
is true but based on a funny story. What happens when Steve Martin uses your name
as a punch line? Sure, he probably didn't know Gern Blanston was your real name.
Nor did Steve Martin realize you were only 12 at the time. You are 12 years old,
a laughing stock, and are scarred for life. Steve Martin, Gern Blanston doesn't
understand you.... The Tormented Gern Blanston...... <

Lemmon Grove, featuring Gern Blanston, Don Lemmon goes in search of his
past and instead creates a fictional yet autobiographical debut that is as winning
as they get. From Lemmon's standpoint, sitting still leaves much to be desired.
He was never in one spot too long; he eludes serious work by creating his own
jobs. This is subject matter may as old as the hills, but Lemmon's take on his
life is nothing but original. Desperate to know his own father before he died,
Lemmon recreates his own life as the stuff of legend so that his own children
may enjoy it. Lemmon has walked miles through the desert, charms the ladies, and
wrote his own ticket since the age of 17. By age 37, after working subtle variations
around every aspect of his interests -- most of which are beyond witty, he admits,
"If I shared my life with you, I have my doubts you would have seen things the
same way." The structure is clever, arrogant, and the net result is healthy, wealthy
and wise. At the heart of it all you will ask yourself the questions: Who are
you? What matters to you? Was I a productive person? Was I good to people? Was
my everyday life as exciting as it could have been? Who do I blame? Blame yourself.
Don Lemmon did. -- The Publisher <

who the man Don Lemmon really is. In Don Lemmon's first compilation novel, Lemmon
Grove, you will get to know him through inspired facts that only the author
knows for sure how much is real, and how much is for your entertainment. Through
all his interwoven tales (including Gern Blanston), frightening mysteries, hilarious
situations and gut wrenching, outrageously romantic yarns, you will begin to understand
yourself, more so than Don Lemmon knows himself. -- This opinion refers to
the print edition. <

the Author Don
Lemmon has been a self published writer since 1990. He is the author of Exercise&
Nutrition: The TRUTH, The Ultimate Development, Refuse To Fail, Personal Training
Certifications, and Pizzazz Magazine. In 2001 he released the music
of White Diamond, a rock and roll project he had first worked on in the late 1980's.
Not only have his books outsold most others of the genre online since he opened
his first website, but his music spent a month at #1 on MP3.com. Currently Don
Lemmon lives near the mountains of Utah, with his wife, Asia Carrera, daughter,
Catalina and their 2 cats, Stinky and Gorbachev. Lemmon spent the first 5 years
of his life in a trailer park. The next 12 in a small town that barely contained
him. After two years as a U.S. Army Paratrooper at Fort Bragg, he headed to Myrtle
Beach as an exotic dancer and model. Leaving the East Coast for good, his sights
were set on the glitz of Rock Stardom, then Medicine, becoming a Celebrity Nutritionist
and a part time Party Animal. Lemmon spent the years of 1990 through 2003 splitting
the majority of his time between Hollywood and Las Vegas, Nevada. After a year
long honeymoon in Hawaii, some say he has finally settled down. Lemmon Grove is
not only about himself, but all the characters he met along the way. <

first glance, the genesis of Lemmon Grove would seem to be obvious. The
book tells the story of a strong minded young man investigating where he came
from and comparing it to where he has gone. Don Lemmon has produced real-life
scenarios, made them sometimes fantastic, but we can all relate. Including Gern
Blanston... Lemmon
said the book was actually inspired by what he called a crude reaction to his
Middle American upbringing. "People who have great certainty in themselves can
do great things, but growing up taught to idolize others can be incredibly destructive.
I knew what I wanted. To set a standard, not be a follower. I hope this books
expresses this desire," he said in a recent interview. <
