Guitarist - Novelist
Norm Karin
​Important Update! I just learned that Amazon has a technical glitch preventing many book titles to be unavailable in print form. Two of my books, Bad Breath and Chased by the Past, are in this category. The good news is that ALL of my books are available in paperback from Barnes & Noble, AND at much lower prices than Amazon!

2009, with TV soap opera legend and jazz vocalist Jerry Douglas, after playing in his backup band for a charity performance in the Three Rivers Convention Center in Richland, WA.

"Art After 5" performance at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute, Jamestown, NY (2022).

My wife won't allow me to buy any more guitars, but I can buy guitar neckties!
