This author has had a very busy week, capped off by a trip to the old stomping grounds in southern Ohio. It started as a favor for a friend and ended as just the tonic I needed before ending this narration of The Secret of Possum Hollow.

The next step for this book is to bring it out in print. We’re already available on Amazon Kindle and work is beginning on bringing the book to print with a little help from BookFuel, a Colorado-based service for independent authors like me. At some point, an audio version of this book will be made available for people like my son who loves audio books. The audio version will be different in that edits will be made to eliminate the little flaws in pronunciation this version has in spades.

While finishing this story, both of the other “Magnolia” stories continue to attract positive attention in private conversations coming from some surprising quarters. About the Magnolia stories, I’m about to unleash the tag line “Novels for people who seldom read novels from an author you may never heard from.”

I’ve written a few lines (well, a page’s worth, really) which I will share at a later date.

Thursday, the opening chapter from a project “The Jumpstart Discoveries”. But for now, we join Tricia Michaels and Jim Brown Junior as they escape from imprisonment in the final four chapters of The Secret of Possum Hollow. (c) 2017 by bdharrell.
