Thomas by Terry Eckstein

Big dogs can accomplish big deeds, but little dogs with big hearts can overcome insurmountable obstacles. Hank Thorson writes about Thomas, a little black dog with a great heart. Thomas is a treasured member of the Thorson family and has had an impact on everyone he meets. Hank's fictional accounts of his adventures with Thomas are inspired by actual events the Thorson family has encountered with their little black dog. Hank writes his short stories from his home near Mantorville, Minnesota. Gun Shot in the Woods is a story of sacrifice; the story of how and why Thomas was willing to give his life in order to save his human friend.
Hello, my name is Hank. I grew up in Minnesota and received my education here as well. After college I lived in the Rochester, Minnesota area in the Southeast part of the state and spent a few decades working for a Fortune 500 company. In 2008 I started my own business, Mantorville Farms, an internet business that sells gifts made in the USA. In 2009 I started writing stories about our family dogs and have now reached the point where I want to start publishing my stories. My stories can be read by the whole family, I never use profanity and I try to write so the reader can learn about life by experiencing the story, just as I have learned by writing about the experiences my family has encountered with our dogs. The stories I tell are fiction, but were inspired by actual events. Although the stories are fiction, the message in the story is not. Hank Thorson is my pen name and it is also the name I use to operate Mantorville Farms. Hank Thorson was my grandfather and his name sounds more Minnesotan than my own, so I started using my grandfather's name in promoting the business. The name Hank Thorson caught on and helped establish the character of Mantorville Farms. Today, most of my friends and all of my customers just call me Hank.
