THE TROUBLE WITH GRITS
A 2017 Faulkner Finalist, The Trouble with Grits visits a mid-century small Mississippi town, its Old South culture, customs, and rarely met expectations.

But times, they are a changin’. With the skillful wielding of her pen, humorist Phyllis Pittman makes us a part of the family and community grappling with the changing times. Liberal doses of humor, pearls of wisdom from the most unlikely places, and unforgettable characters weave a captivating narrative that merely whets your appetite for more!
I Love My Job!: A Pondering Memoir
MAKING OF AN INDUSTRY:
Every pond has a story. This one starts with a hobbyist who fell in love with water, made nearly every mistake imaginable, and turned those failures into the foundation of a global company.
In 2026, the author marks 56 years around the sun, 44 years as a pond hobbyist, and 35 years as the founder of Aquascape Inc.—now the world’s largest manufacturer of professional-grade pond equipment. But long before the accolades and the industry recognition, there was just a young dreamer with a shovel, a hose, and a stubborn refusal to quit.
This is the full, unfiltered story—warts and all. From the early missteps that could have ended the dream before it started, to the philosophy that changed an entire industry: work with Mother Nature, not against her. That simple idea became the Aquascape Ecosystem approach, reshaping how the world thinks about ponds and water features.
Written over ten emotional days in Hawaii while reflecting on more than four decades in the hobby he was lucky enough to turn into his life’s work, this book is part memoir, part business lesson, and part love letter to the pursuit of a passion.
Whether you’re a hobbyist chasing a dream, a self-employed professional weathering the grind of entrepreneurship, or simply someone who loves a good story about persistence paying off, this book will remind you: the mistakes aren’t the end of the story. Sometimes, they’re the beginning of a legacy.
I hope you enjoy reading about my journey and in turn are inspired to live your own dreams around “Living the Aquascape Lifestyle!”
