“Joe Roberts” Caputo started writing novels when he was 75. This followed a 50-year radio career as a disc jockey, as well as hosting a golf show on the Travel Channel. When his wife of 44 years passed, he turned his hand to writing novels. He gets an idea, then fleshes it out with characters, names them, describes them and delves into characteristics of each one. There are usually several story lines in each book, so there is always something interesting going on.
