“You ask one friend to bring the wine.  You ask another to make that special dessert. Scott Sanders? You beg him for stories. Kidnappings. Romantic disasters. Accidental fame. A dog with a better acting career. A Storyteller’s Wild Life is hilarious proof that some people simply should not be left unattended.”

“I’ve been lucky enough to share the stage with Scott Sanders many times and I’ve learned two things: he is a masterful storyteller, and an alarming number of wildly improbable things have happened to him. Let him take you for a ride. You won’t regret it!”

“Many writers have led extraordinary lives. They usually have 5 or 6 extraordinary experiences that verify this. But in the case of Scott Sanders, you could likely combine the lives of multiple writers and still fall short of the life he’s lived. The fact that he’s not only capable but a master at relating these stories from behind the mic AND the printed page as an author leaves one reeling at his sheer talent. Put on your unbelievable hat when you hear or read his work. Truly extraordinary.”
