"I don't sugarcoat things. Life's too short for that."

John Kuhn is a memoirist, storyteller, and unapologetic truth-teller from Charleston, South Carolina. Born and raised on a farm, John learned early that life doesn't come with a filter—and neither should the stories we tell about it.
His debut memoir, I Tell It Like It Is!, pulls back the curtain on a life spent working the land, navigating family dynamics, and finding humor in the everyday struggles that define the American experience. From tractor breakdowns to holiday dinners gone wrong, John's stories resonate because they're real.
When he's not writing or touring, John can be found tending to his garden, debating politics with anyone who'll listen, or sharing a cold drink on the porch while the sun goes down. He believes that every person has a story worth telling— and that the best stories are the ones that make you laugh, cry, and think all at once.

"The best stories aren't the ones where everything goes right. They're the ones where everything goes wrong, and you find a way to laugh about it later."
