About

I am a seventy year young grandmother.  I started writing stories for my two grandsons for Christmas a few years ago.  They liked them so much that they now expect a new one each year.
My husband of almost fifty years encouraged me to write and publish more children and young adult books.  His support has been fantastic.  We have two adult sons, a daughter and those two wonderful grandsons.
I have written and published on Createspace about 30 works.  Some have been combined into collections of stories.
Most of the stories have encouragement and hints for the reader, such as the Maddy and Squirt series.  This is a sister and brother that must deal with moving, a new home, making new friends, going to a new school and their encounters along the way.
Reading releases the hidden child in all of us and gives us hope, encouragement and insite.  Our imagination gives us wings to fly.

Description

<p><strong><em>Have you ever awoken from a vivid dream and wondered which side of waking was real?</em></strong></p><p>Burt Higgins' retirement is not going well. His children have grown, and his wife has gone off to earn a late-life degree, leaving him alone in his sprawling suburban home. With too much time on his hands, he broods on the state of the world, obsessively following the worst of cable news and the Internet. Increasingly angry at the state of affairs, he nurtures a fantasy that a dark lord from another realm has foisted these problems on humankind. If only he could transport to that world, he'd confront the demon and use the magic found there to defeat the beast and end despair forever.</p><p>On a particularly bad news day, while housebound in the midst of a snowstorm, he retreats to his study to shut out the world and immerse himself in his books. When, on a whim, he lights a candle purchased in an obscure Prague curiosity shop, a magical guide appears and offers to take him on whatever quest he chooses. When he asks to become a hero in a fantasy realm, he discovers a more complex world than he expected, and battling evil with magic turns out to be far from his greatest challenge.</p><p><strong>EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS</strong> a specualtive fantasy adventure sure not just to entertain you, but to make you consider your life, your dreams, your goals.
