Owner info
Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: Bill Riddle is an essayist, columnist and author of two books. His humor column, Bad Advice, reached 700 million people assuming his two readers passed along the rags he wrote for to 350 million friends. Bestselling author James Swain says, “Bill Riddle makes me laugh out loud. He’s one of the funniest writers I know. His “Bad Advice” column should be read by all.” Ballantine Books’ Libby McGuire feels Bill’s writing style is “immensely readable” and “difficult to stop reading, which is a rare quality in the writing we see these days.” Amazon reviewer, Sebastian Fernandez, says “He made me explode in laughter.” His books, 95 Chances for Love and Sanity is Overrated await publication. Bill’s Personal essays/Memoirs have won numerous awards in Writer’s Digest writing competitions. After getting his start with Community News Publications and the vanguard of nudist doings, Pasco Naturally, he has become a regular contributor to the Tampa Bay Times. Somehow, he graduated from Boston University and Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Preservation, and Planning. While at Columbia, Bill was recognized for writing Nantucket’s Affordable Housing Problem. Once he finishes the nuclear reactor he’s building in his attic, Bill will continue his tireless campaign to change the Florida state bird from the mockingbird to the Emperor penguin.
Why the Owner Chose Odessa:
Spectacular setting facing south on one of the County's most exclusive lakes. 800 foot driveway provides access to main house and the boathouse. It's very private, captures the natural beauty of Florida and is a place you'll fall in love with. One couple came for a month and extended their stay for another 60 days. It's the kind of place you won't want to leave.
