Stop by to see author, storyteller and musician, Brian Daniels perform as his alter-ego, Average Joe Wright, an average, thick-around-the-middle man living in Smalltown, USA who is hopelessly clinging to the 20th century on Wednesday, Sept. 25 at 6 p.m. in the Goodall Memorial Library’s  Community Room in Sanford.

It Seemed Like a Compliment to Me, like Brian’s previous book, Thoughts of an Average Joe, offers Average Joe’s hilarious rants about the challenges of life in the modern world as well as humorous stories inspired by the eclectic and fascinating Smalltown characters who share his world.

Daniels is an avid outdoorsman, a newspaper columnist, novelist, musician, and songwriter. Many of his songs, including four title tracks, have been recorded by eight different artists.

His first novel, Luke’s Dream, was released in January, 2011. He has, for several years, written a humorous column, Thoughts of an Average Joe by Joe Wright (Thoughts of an Average Brian just doesn’t have the same ring), which is featured in newspapers throughout northern New England. Before retiring, Brian practiced optometry in Brunswick, where he lives with his wife, Laurene.

The presenatation is free and open to the public. Louis B. Goodall Memorial Library is at 952 Main St. in Sanford.
