लेखक: Larry Larry D.

Larry D. Black is a local author with eleven published novels centered on the Scroggins family. Larry was reared in the southern part of Franklin County, Texas, and attended Mt. Vernon High School through his junior year at which time his family moved to Houston, TX. He is a graduate of the University of Houston and is now retired after being employed with a major defense contractor for twenty-six years. He is married to Martha and they live in Franklin County on Larry”s original home place. Together, he and Martha have five children and sixteen grandchildren, and four great great- grandchildren. Since retiring, he has two full full-time jobs. For one, he and Martha owned and operated a Boer goat farm (Little Creek Farms) in the South Franklin community until recently. After some twenty years of raising goats, Larry recently sold his goats and now devotes his time to working in his yard. Secondly, he is a preacher at the Blodgett church of Christ where he spends a lot of time ministering to inmates and drug rehabilitation. Between the two, Larry never has a shortage of anything to do.
