    Shagi

    Born and raised for the most part in Anchorage, Alaska, Shagi has raised a beautiful daughter ( Jessica Jane Christ ) the pride and joy of his life.. He loves being outdoors enjoying hiking, camping and fishing. He also loves being where the action is, in Night Clubs, Parties and Sporting Events. He enjoys hosting parties and has turned it into a hobby of sorts.. Hosting Golf tournaments and random parties raising money for non-profits such as The Boys & Girls Clubs Of America, Challenge Alaska, The Lions Clubs and many more. When asked by friends how he comes up with the many sayings, Shagi says “I hear random words from peoples conversations, and usually the words I hear are the first or first couple of words, then i just start writing often times not knowing what the finished work will be”. When done he reads it for the first time. They are left pretty much as written with missing punctuation and some miss-spelled words.They will speak to your soul, some with humor. When read a second or third time they sometimes have new meanings. There are places in the book to keep track of your favorites and also room provided to jot down your own thoughts. Please enjoy the book alone or with someone you love…
