Something About Me and My Book:
I hope you don’t mind if I brag just a little. I am thrilled to tell you that my memoir, “Digging Deep: A Writer Uncovers His Marriages,” has been in the top 1-2% in sales on Amazon most of the time since it was released three weeks ago.

Here is what Best-selling author, poet and
teacher, Jervey Tervalon said about
Digging Deep:
“This memoir is written with brutal
honesty about the process
of coming to understand himself
and the failure of his marriages.
His coming of age as a highly
paid lawyer provides insight into
the ‘Mad Man’-like excesses of the
seventies. A compelling read.”
After a stellar 40-year career as a top and nationally recognized attorney in his field (Time Magazine called him first after Martha Stewart’s conviction of insider trading), Boyd Lemon followed a deep calling, and began the life of an artist as he neared retirement age. Following his heart led him to face a painful past, and re-invent himself as artist and writer. The journey as artist began in the idyllic coastal town of Ventura, California, then on to the venerable literary, music and art scenes of Boston, and finally to living the dream life of many an artist, a
Bohemian year on the Left Bank in Paris, with a final few months in the hills of Tuscany before returning back to California.

Once Lemon started writing, his passion, combined with years of discipline as a professional, gained the notice of world-renowned writer and teacher, Natalie Goldberg, who invited Lemon to her prestigious year-long workshop for writers in Taos.

His memoir, "Digging Deep: A Writer Uncovers His Marriages," is about Boyd Lemon's role in the destruction of his three marriages. This is a journey to understand one man's role in marriages that ended in divorce, confusion, bitterness and blame. The Pearl has been the journey of the writing, for the writer himself, and the peace that writing has brought him. Lemon lived on the cusp of the moralistic generation that grew up in the 1940s and 50s and the next generation that embraced sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, as well as equality and independence for women. The transition rocked all pretenses of his working class upbringing. The writer’s hope is that revealing the path of his own struggle to clarity and peace leads others to their own awakening, as so many modern couples and individuals deal with understanding and defining the new order in relationships, as well as facing their own past.
