Jimi Peranteau

Author

I am a 39 year old father, husband musician truck driver and now author. I was born and raised for most of my life in Philadelphia Pa. In my younger years I focused my education on music until i had a spontaneous numo thorax which prevented me from playing the instruments I had been studying. From there I taught myself to play the guitar and focused my basic education. At age 17 I was sent to Job Corps where I received my GED and a trade in auto mechanics. There I met who would become my wife after reconnecting 7 years later. I have worked in many fields, from cars to tattoo artist and found my place in the trucking industry. My writing career, you could say really started about 15 years ago. But after writers block, giving up, rediscovering it and then ultimately deciding on self publishing, I really began to focus on it this past February.
