From the AuthorYou Only Get So Much is the story of one man and his struggle to find himself amid the chaos of the family he so desperately wants to avoid. He stays away because he believes this is the only way he can keep them safe. He's wrong. It took me nearly two years to get the story in its final form, so these characters have been running around in my head for a long, long time. Thus some of them mean a great deal to me.  The novel takes place in the Northwest, where I'm from. Those of you who have visited Spokane, Washington, my hometown, will recognize several locations.  I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. About the AuthorDan Kolbet lives in Spokane, Washington with his wife and children.
