Written a year before his death, Hayes describes "The rigors of writing smut were definitely telling on Wood at this point. The rehashed plot of the transvestite hitman certainly wasn't original this time around, and the usual colorful characters are almost nonexistent. The flair that made some of his other novels and films bearable, even through a thin plot and the strange grammar, was noticeably absent from TV Lust. It seems as though Ed Wood had finally given up.

Cabin In The Woods" is a collection of true-life adventures with spiritual insights for young people. It focuses around the time my parents moved our family to a rural, Connecticut town called Cheshire. We took up residence in an old, rustic cabin sitting deep in the woods. There was no running water, no bathroom, no heat and no electricity, only a huge stone fireplace for cooking. But, it was there during that first summer that my parents began to build their "dream house." For me, it was the adventure of a lifetime, and the things I learned about life and God were immeasurable. From living in a pine bark cabin to building a house in the woods; from cornering wild woodchucks to getting squirted by skunks; from raising dogs to chasing weasels. I'd like to share these early, "cabin adventures" with young people of all ages to enjoy.
