Exciting changes have been forced on website changes for this member and writer. Perhaps I am trying to do too much. Anyway, I had to make a decision on whether to continue two other websites that were not getting much traffic, and yet the costs were going up each year, which  …………. Well, it was nuts to stay there. The two new sites are up at the links below in the signature space.  The layout is markedly different in appearance, and at the moment, not many pages, but it is a rebuilding process.  

It is exciting because of the upcoming release of the in print version of “The Doc” novel will have a new home on the author page. It is still in final editing and has no new cover. I could go on about it, for the time being, but there will be more forthcoming. I really do not know how this version will turn out, in some changes of editing. So it must wait.

The art here is the original cover art for the first novel in print. For Thou Art With Me was released in December of 2005. Though it is still supposed to be able to order a "print on demand" copy, it is not a sure thing. Copies are still available, and Amazon and others have listings. I have a few, also, new in a box. The story is a World War II flashback, love and war story. The jacket blurb is below.

During an exciting air show, Darla, 66, reminisces to a younger family friend, Ernie.  She tells him the things he never knew, about their friends and family during World War II.  We follow the story back in time as Ernie hears of their dreams and tragedies in fictitious Mudford, California. Darla wants to be a singer but the war changes everything.  Everyone reacts to Pearl Harbor.  We follow the men in her life, through their training, battles, struggles, and learn what these unsung heroes did in their service.  Darla also has her life threatened by a jealous girl.  Darla’s dreams are not fulfilled.  Back in real time, Ernie tries to fulfill one of her dreams.  It is a cute and nostalgic gesture, and appreciated.  Ernie learns something about himself, as well as learning about all the guys he grew up around.  Darla’s husband has a surprise for her as well.
