Sunday in the Burg

Well it's Sunday in beautiful Harrisburg.  I just got back from church and it occured to me that I haven't told you that The Silver is set up to be a trilegy.  The first book ends with the plot sort of set up with another book in mind.  I am working on that book now while also working on finalizing the publishing of The Silver.  I think you will like all three books.  The second book will end also with the plot set up for the third book.  You can follow the various members of the Nelson family throughout all three books.  I think you will find all three books enjoyable to read, at least I hope so.  Well this book will not write itself so it's off to work.  Thanks for reading my blog and I hope to hear from you soon.

The Silver

The Silver is about a Mexican woman who imigrated to the United States at a very young age when her husband was killed in a silver mine cave-in.  The whole book is based in Harrisburg Pa. (my home town)  They say write about what you know so I did.  You will get to know her and her US family very well.  Just be prepared to know that there are some things that are different about this family.
This excerpt is from Chapter 1: “He told me many times that I was a formidable woman”, she thought. “He doesn’t know how formidable I can be when I want to be”, she said to herself. She saw a crack of light about twenty feet in front of her and knew she would be alright. It was very hard to breathe now and she discovered just then that she was no longer on her feet but on her knees inching forward at a snails pace. She looked up to the light and it was moving like the shimmering light of the ocean.
“It’s not in focus for some reason, but I can breathe” was her final thought before she passed into the darkness of unconsciousness.
