Al Ainsworth writes about family, story, and legacy. Though he has written in the genres of memoir, middle-grade sports fiction, Christian fiction, and biography, these three threads run through each of his books. The Lonesome, Party of Six Christian fiction series follows the stories of six lonely strangers brought together by the kindness of a stranger stuck in her own loneliness. (Find this series through my thinly-veiled pen name, A. Ainsworth.) Playing for Overtime: The David Lee Herbert Story is a sports and human spirit biography of how a wrong-way play, tragic car accident, and lengthy ALS battle set the stage for this small-school football coach to impact generations. Lines in the Gravel is a memoir about his growing up in rural Star, Mississippi, and the family values he later recognized were being passed down through the stories that his family tells and re-tells. Stories from the Roller Coaster (of a Faith Life) is a personal look at the ups and downs of his own faith journey and a challenge to readers to pass along their own faith stories to the next generation. The Coach Dave sports action series follows a group of players and parents on a journey from recreational baseball to travel baseball through their high school tryouts with their coach who cares more about whom his players become that what they become on the baseball field, despite ongoing conflict with a win-at-all-costs opposing coach.
