Dan McCrory has written a novel that is sparse and raw. It is the story of Charlie Wise, asshole. He has cheated on his wife for years, forsaken his friends past and present, and left behind a trail of broken hearts and broken people. When he announces a diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease as a death sentence, nobody cares. In his search for salvation, he travels to Thailand and Morocco and finally comes home to make amends and finish his Great American Novel. His apology tour takes him into the heart of Texas and into a half-forgotten past that may just transform him.

Like his main character, Dan McCrory has been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. Researching the disease for the book and following its progression gave him purpose and drive during the lockdown of the pandemic. One of the meds prescribed for him had a silver lining: a study revealed the drug boosted creativity in 20 percent of patients. McCrory's first book, the nonfiction Capitalism Killed the Middle Class: 25 Ways the System is Rigged Against You, was a finalist in the writing category of the Page Turner Awards. He has been published in the 2020 anthology of California's Best Emerging Poets and was a quarter finalist in the 2021 NYC International Screenplay Awards for his script, Bubblegum Summer.
