Larry was working on what he thought would be his first novel, a thriller which brought a legendary figure from the past into the present. He decided to get an opinion on the storyline from his friend Marty Cummins, a lawyer and the owner of "Chapter's on Park" in Winter Park, Florida. Marty liked the idea, but he had another one. As a long-time Disney fan, he had always dreamed of writing a book based on the urban legend that Walt Disney never died, but was in cryonic suspension somewhere. He also knew that Larry was a former Disney marketing executive and had an insider's view of the company. "Why don't you bring Walt back?" suggested Marty. And that's how it all began.

Marty has autographed copies of Waking Walt available at Chapters and if you'd like to order one, just contact him at info@chaptersonpark.com.

Larry is back working on that "first" novel and plans to have it completed this year. You can take a peek at it in the Author section of this website.
