Blog Fest Day 16- Witches of Appalachia
I always wanted to write a story dealing with witches in the Appalachian Mountains. I don't think its a far stretch because I'm sure there are some witches in the high country. I wanted to add a fantasy element to the story, however. I'm short on time, but hopefully I can pull you in enough… Continue reading Blog Fest Day 16- Witches of Appalachia
Blog Fest Day 12

She was not prone to wild thoughts or unrealistic superstitions, but the… Continue reading Blog Fest #I don’t even know what number I’m on anymore….
Blog Fest Day 8- Murder in the Stacks
This is a story that is near and dear to my heart because it takes place on the campus of my Alma Mater, Penn State. This November will mark the 46th anniversary of the mysterious death of Betsy Aardsma, the young grad student whose murder in the stacks of the library was never solved. Her memory… Continue reading Blog Fest Day 8- Murder in the Stacks
Blog Fest Day 6 (Post 3)
See? I knew I was ambitious when I started this Blog Fest. So I have missed a few days and I apologize but here is the conclusion to the story of Dessa and Trudy and the haunted farmhouse on Dodson Farm. “In 1956, my grandparents were married. They had been married and living in the… Continue reading Blog Fest Day 6 (Post 3)
