What's it about?
So, while we are still waiting on the finishing touches of my book, let me give you a synopsis. Charlotte is a typical teenager growing up in northeast Arkansas. She loves the outdoors and is a hopeless romantic when it comes to imaging what life must have been like in the past. She is particularly interested in the Indians who might have lived where she now lives before white people moved in.
Indigo is also a teenager in the Osage tribe living in the early 1800s. But, unlike Charlotte, she is expected to get married and start a family at her age. She is in love with her husband-to-be and looks forward to having children with him.
The story goes back and forth between Charlotte and Indigo describing their everyday life. Their individual lives have many similarities as well as some stark differences. Both girls are part of a rich culture that is steeped in their traditions.
But with every story, there is trouble. I can't wait for you to read and find out about their lives and see how they handle adversity and danger. I hope it is a beginning of a series that we will all come to love and enjoy.

Xylander: A Spirit Traveler Beginning
It's almost here!
Most all the work has been done. Now it's time to proofread and edit. I am so excited to publish my first book and I can't wait to hear your response. I hope to set up an open dialog between me and my readers so we can openly discuss the topics that come up in my writing.
I know not everyone will accept the things I chose to put in my book, but that's okay. We can discuss our views and find out our reasons behind our choices.
As a former teacher, I still have a tendency to teach new things and explore new learning. I am especially anxious to hear from my former students to find out what they think of the book.
So, hang in there. Hopefully, it won't be too much longer. Keep your eyes out for Xylander: A Spirit Traveler Beginning coming to Kindle and Amazon Publishing, soon!
