David L. Anders

A physician who practices Internal Medicine and Geriatrics in Peachtree City, Georgia, David has written a number of scientific articles for medical journals and books. He has also published essays with medical themes in JAMA and other medical publications. His first full-length book was the result of some foolishness he had toyed with one day. As a physician he realized that the diagnosis of alcohol abuse was sometimes not all that complicated or difficult, as long as the doctor knew the right question to ask or the right sign to look for. Before long, he had a list of over one hundred such items. Not knowing just what to do with this insight, he compiled the book "You Might Be a Problem Drinker If..". and presented it to his wife, Kenya, for her birthday because he loves to make her laugh. She did not protest too much and the price was right, so in subsequent years he expanded his birthday writings to a sequel, "You Might Be a Problem Drinker If... Let's Have Another Round!" He then wrote musings on his geriatric patients, "Octogenarians Say the Darndest Things!" (written in collaboration with his mother, Rebekah Yates Anders, also a physician). More recently he has written a full length novel, "20/80, A Love Letter... Sort Of", a romantic comedy telling the story of David Patson, a 20-year-old Pre-Med student at the University of Georgia who awakens carefree on his 20th birthday, May 25, 1977, then meets three uninvited strangers who crash his party and take him on what can only be described as the journey of a lifetime. Not willing to keep all the fun to himself, he then sponsored a contest to help write the third book in the "You Might Be a Problem Drinker If..."series. Readers responded with some fairly outlandish quips of their own. Read the winning entries in "You Might Be a Problem Drinker If... Time For Some Homebrew!".
