The (Extra)ordinary Life of Jimmie Mayfield Troy Young

Jimmie Mayfield is a mullet-headed manchild, a 30-year old man going on 18. He hasn't found his groove in life; not in his career, not in love, not in anything. Jimmie believes that he is destined for greatness, but has no idea what that means or how he is going to get there. Living with his mother in a dilapidated trailer at the Pleasant Meadows trailer park in the coastal town of Englewood, Florida, Jimmie's life is a series of missteps. With his loyal but misfit friends at his side, Jimmie tries to figure it all out. But what will he do when a stroke of luck changes everything for him? Catcher in the Rye meets A Confederacy of Dunces meets High Fidelity. This lighthearted tale will make you laugh at parts, cry at others, but more often than not have you say 'WTF Jimmie?' For anyone that has ever sat and contemplated their life, you'll soon find that there is a little bit of Jimmie Mayfield in all of us.
