; "Fun Is Where You Find It!")
Fun Is Where You Find It! is a collection of Western North Carolina humorist Bob Terrell’s funniest columns from the Asheville Citizen-Times.
For over thirty-five years, Bob has interviewed the famous and the obscure and shares his revelations in a way a reader can identify with. A school principal, the city manager, the mayor, and area religious leaders are subject to Bob’s gentle and witty observations. Though the people in his articles are specific, they are universal and timeless in character.
Bob finds humor in such diverse subjects as a presidential election, a church covered-dish dinner, a tent revival, even something as simple as a buzzing fly. We are entertained with newsroom pranks and newspaper typos. These are humorous tales of everyday fun in Southern Appalachia. "Fun is where you find it," Bob says, "and you don’t necessarily have to go looking."
This collection of Bob Terrell’s humor was originally self-published and is now available through Bright Mountain Books.
; "A Touch of Terrell")
Like its predecessor, Fun Is Where You Find It!, this collection of Bob Terrell’s distinctive columns from the Asheville Citizen-Times invokes chuckles and laughter, but some stories describe the unusual or just plain bizarre.
Bob writes about the basketball coach who dressed as a rabbit, the so-called "Batman of Waynesville," and Big Buck the snake stomper. "A writer" Bob says, "is nothing more than a sum total of his personal experiences."
His lengthy newspaper career provided Bob with a wealth of Western North Carolina characters and events from which to draw inspiration for anecdotes which both entertain and enlighten. A Touch of Terrell once again proves that when it comes to storytelling, Bob has a warm and very human touch.
This collection of Bob Terrell’s humor was originally self-published and is now available through Bright Mountain Books.

Since retiring from writing daily columns, Terrell has dedicated more time to traveling — especially to Israel and the Mideast — as well as writing more books. He has recently written John Henry Moss: Baseball’s Miracle Man, a biography of the baseball legend who founded minor league baseball’s South Atlantic League and served as its president for fifty years. Terrell also co-wrote Disorder in the Court! with Marcellus "Buck" Buchanan.
