Sterling Haynes is an octogenarian writer of humorous short stories and zany poems. He was a country and urban doctor for almost 40 years in BC and Alabama. When he was 70 he had a stroke and, as he puts it, “my brain was rearranged. I developed a wonky right foot, and started writing funny stories and poems. I traded a paralyzed right foot for a developing, storytelling right brain. Maybe I got the better of the deal!”
