Tommy “Teach” Morrison – teacher, raconteur and alleged devil worshiper – can’t stop crying over the loss of Cait, the love of his life, a loss caused by a violent nature that he struggles to understand and control.  Can Tommy come to grips with his grief about his past deeds, a past that includes more than one horrible secret? 

He has many people in his life who could help – including several of his students, whose essays have important lessons for Teach, if he will only listen.

Tommy “Teach” Morrison is one of the most humorous, haunted and honest characters to cross the page in a long time.  Glorify Each Day is a witty and gripping, if not addictive, read. . . .  A read this good should not be ignored.
      --San Francisco Book Review

(A) very compelling and thought-provoking reading experience.  John Banks creates a unique realism in his characters, drawing the reader into the story in such a way one might forget you’re reading a work of fiction.
      --Pacific Book Review

John Banks does a wonderful job at creating a fascinating cast of characters. Glorify Each Day is quite a unique work of fiction.
      --Rebecca’s Reads

A teacher comes to terms with guilt, grief and regret while teaching GED classes to a motley group of students.  A unique, emotional story.
     --Kirkus Reviews

Glorify Each Day is the study of a middle-aged man delving into his own psyche to find the source of his troubles.  There is definite complexity simmering beneath the surface of the narrative voice, a sense that by patching together life’s remnants, one can create something whole and begin anew.
