West Lancashire, UK – ‘A Guy's Secret Guide to Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Other Not-So-Secret Essays about Everything Else’ pokes lighthearted fun at the ‘real’ 50 shades and tries to make sense of it for the men who really don’t ‘get it’. Also included it’s 196 pages are 50 of Paolangeli’s best commentaries from his award-winning column in the Ithaca Times. Some humorous, some thought provoking but always from the heart.

Paolangeli says, “This book is a necessity for everyone. Imagine going camping for example, and you run out of kindling? I guarantee the pages of this book will burn quickly and easily.”

Paolangeli was born in 1955 in Ithaca NY, and despite occasionally moving away, he always felt drawn toreturn. From 2001 to 2010 he wrote an award-winning column for the Ithaca Times, "Tom's Two Cents." (New York Press Association Region 4 Best Humor Column in 2004, runner up in 2002 and 2006.) He also won screenwriting awards from Writer's Digest. He's raced and wrecked cars, played bass in rock and roll bands, and once owned a 1952 Greyhound bus.
