The memoir

The professor left
the classroom.
The road taught back.

After a life-changing rejection, M.D. Wilson sold nearly everything, climbed into a Winnebago named La Adelita, and drove through all fifty states.

Billionaires. Burrito makers. Bush pilots. Buskers. Strangers with something to teach a man who thought he was the teacher.

Funny, unguarded, and deeply human, Nothing Unlived confronts ambition, friendship, love, loss, and the dangerous belief that there will always be more time.

“The classroom disappeared.
Nobody took attendance.”
