My Story

      Sterling Goodspeed lives and works in North Creek, NY,  with his wife Susan, who together run a small town law office. He has lived the majority of his life in his hometown, raising two children there and volunteering and advocating for economic growth, historic preservation and other local issues. The Goodspeed Family has called North Creek home for seven generations.

      True North is a collection of short stories tracing the history of a rural Adirondack community over the past sixty years. Each story provides a snapshot of a different time period in one small town, introducing the reader to a variety of characters and plot lines that illustrate the eclectic nature of the Adirondack landscape. When taken together, the snapshots create a photo album that memorializes small town living over the last half century.

“These stories are Hemingway-esque with a North Creek vibe while providing insights you only get when you have lived in a place your whole life. Sterling says there is a subtext in the writing that small towns like his are filled with alienation and isolation. There is a sense of loss about those innocent times, but there is also a certain charm to the stories and often excitement.”
