“A
great story, told by a master storyteller.

“Ribbons
of Concrete is a gut wrenching and incredible first
novel featuring one man’s journey into hell.
His uncanny sense of style, with description, pathos, and storytelling
are truly remarkable. Only someone who
actually lived this odyssey could pen such memories, and it makes Kerouac’s “On
the Road” seem like a poor man’s “Dick and Jane.”
Steven Chamberlin-Editor
“A warm and remarkable story of a man’s heart and
soul. A chronicle of his crusade
to redeem not only himself, but the mortal lives and futures of others. The book is a beautiful journey into the mind
and desperate times of Jack Vink. A must read for anyone who takes the precious
gifts of love and life for granted. I
found myself wanting to reach out and rescue him.”
Mary-Anne Elwood
“The
story takes you places you don’t want to leave as you are caught up in the
adventure and mishaps of this banished man.
You won’t want to set the novel down to leave this man alone for a
minute. It captured my heart and soul.”
Laurie Berger-Jackson PhD
“Ribbons
of Concrete is one of the most interesting book I ever
had the pleasure to read. It is an
intriguing story rich in romance, love, heartache and personal tragedy. Jack Vink is very
talented and has a successful future ahead of him as a writer.”

About the Author
During my travels I have seen
things that go unnoticed by others. Snow
on red roses, rain falling from a clear blue sky and double rainbows so bright
a feeling of exultation fills your heart.
I have stopped to watch woods fill up with snow in the quietness of
nature. I have slept under the heavenly
stars that shine so brightly in the dark of night, you become aware, that a
greater power does exist. I have slept
in the deepest of forest that have filled up my senses with black clouds racing
past a crescent moon above. Unafraid, I
listened to the music of the night that comes from within its shadows. I have walked ridgelines where prospectors
from a bygone era have walked before me.
Like a child, I have chased dust cyclones dancing across the desert floor
and have seen the most frightful violent storms come and go. I have looked into the eyes of angels and
been chased by the devil himself!
Circumstances make me travel the
back roads of
I am on a quest, searching for the truth of life.
Enjoy the read.
