Troy Lewis worked in the pharmaceutical sales and training arena for over 19 years.  Colleagues who enjoyed his life lesson stories encouraged him to share his stories.  One person is quoted as saying, “If you write a story nearly as well as you tell it, then you should write a book!”  His mother had used the same words only the day before.  Heeding their advice, he began writing his first book, Gas Money, which encompasses stories from his small-town childhood experiences in 1960s Virginia to the present.     

With limited knowledge of the publishing industry, Troy was grateful that Al Gore had created “The Internet”, and used it to learn how to self-publish his book.  Since its release in July, Gas Money has been featured on C-SPAN’s Book TV, Steve Adubato’s One-On-One television program, and in the Huffington Post.  Troy serves as an inspiration to all with the writing bug.  His motto is:  “All of us have a story to tell, so quit telling it and start writing it!” 

Troy received his B.A. in Communications from the University of Nebraska-Omaha while serving in the U.S. Air Force for 11 years.  He has lived in New Jersey since 1996.
