"I've always been interested in telling stories," Ricky said, "Most of the stories have become songs but some stories take a little longer. A couple of years ago I started to write down some longer memories which didn't fit as snugly into verses or choruses.

"I hope people might enjoy the stories as much as I have enjoyed writing them down.
