Welcome to the official Payhip bookstore of Richard L. Fricks.

Here you’ll find the complete collection of Richard’s Boaz novels—stories of mystery, justice, belief, loyalty, family, and the secrets that shape life in a small Alabama town.

You’ll also find The Pencil-Driven Life, Richard’s nonfiction exploration of what happens when certainty falls away and we begin learning to live with greater attention, honesty, and humility.

Whether you are looking for a gripping Southern novel or a thoughtful book about questioning, revising, and beginning again, explore the collection below or use the search icon at the top of the page to find a particular title.
