Lost River

“Loved the back stories of the characters. Lost River really got me to thinking about my small town in Arkansas and wondering what hidden stories lurked there.”

- Bobbie Davis, Teacher, Palo Alto (retired)

I grew up in upstate New York. My father’s medical partner was a Dr. Nichols. My dog, was just like Boot. My parents were friends with a Conti family. Our mayor embezzled a sizeable amount of money and skipped town. It was all there just with a southern accent.”

- Phil Pritchard, President, Friends of Peachtree Hills Park

“Your writing is a dichotomy of seriousness and humor that works superbly together. I’d recommend Lost River to anyone who is curious about small towns and interested in people.”

- Ellen Herscher, Columnist, LaGrange Standard and News
