Jimmy Outten is a 13-year-old farm boy who has never left home before. But it is just after the Civil War and the house and barn have burned to the ground. The stock is gone. Confederate and Union soldiers marching across the land have taken every scrap of food. His mother has died from a war-borne fever. When his father limps home, a medical discharge in his pocket, they decide to head west. Uncle Charlie has a ranch just outside Santa Fe, New Mexico, and the future seems to beckon. It might have happened that way, but his father is killed after little more than a week on the trail and Jimmy is left to decide whether to go on or go back. Back to what? With 13-year-old bravado and little else, Jimmy decides to continue his journey – alone. With a little help and a lot of determination, he fights the terrain, the weather and his own youthful doubts. Toughened and matured by the trip, 15-year old Jim completes his odyssey in a little over a year, and arrives in Santa Fe a man.Getting There is the first volume of several novels currently in development. In prior years I wrote advertising copy for Westinghouse and IBM, then spent 35 years teaching college level English language and literature. The world of advertising was exciting and fun. The teaching was rewarding and deeply satisfying. Writing is all that and more.

The 10th anniversary edition of the #1 Bestselling series. "A breathtaking world and an excellent epic fantasy series! This wonderful adventure reminds me of a cross between J.R.R. Tolkien, J.K.

Very satisfying." -- The Fantasy GuideA dark shadow has been cast across the known lands. War sweeps through the divided nations of men and elves. There is great despair for the future of men, for if the greatest of all kingdoms can fail there can be no hope in tomorrow's tomorrow for any man in any land. Yet there is deeper despair among the elven peoples where for the first time in recorded history the elves of the West and East are at war with each other. In such a dark time, there can be little hope, and yet there are those who do hold out hope. Hope that the righteous and just will prevail. Hope that tomorrow's tomorrow will bring a better day. But turning back the tides is as unlikely as turning back time. What's done is done. The Alder King is dead, murdered by his enemies-the very enemies that have taken the heart of his kingdom and with it the kingdom itself. There can be no doubt that an enemy king has extended his reach and taken the prize he so coveted. Yet the thing he prized above all else-the thing that spurned him-has escaped his grasp. Other things have escaped his grasp as well. In those things lies the hope for a future without tyranny-a hope for the peoples of Ruin Mist; and to win freedom is to win the future for everyone and everything. But what of the elves far across the great sea? Is their hope folly and their folly hope? If men succumb to the darkness, the light of the elves must surely succumb as well, and then darkness will rule forever. Who can know for certain, but surely the fallen sons of ages past and present must have the final say. Get ready to enter In the Service of Dragons Book 4.

For the first time, living legends and popular heroes tell teens how they survived their adolescence When they were 11 and 14, respectively, brothers Robert and William Hatch embarked on an ambitious project: to discover how many of their heroes dealt with the challenges of early adolescence. The result is The Hero Project, a fascinating collection of interviews with some of the most prominent names in sports, science, politics, entertainment, the arts, and religion. From dealing with bullies to overcoming health problems, feeling lonely and different to growing up in a broken home, what they thought of the world around them to their own heroes and role models, these luminaries share their candid recollections of life as a teen and offer young readers advice on how to grow up to be heroes themselves. In addition to the interviews, each chapter contains a brief biography of the selected interviewee, along with the fascinating back story of how the brothers made contact with the hero in question. Heroes of The Hero Project: Pete Seeger, Madeleine L’Engle, Florence Griffith Joyner, Jimmy Carter,Orson Scott Card,Yo Yo Ma, Elouise Cobell, Carroll Spinney, Desmond Tutu, Lance Armstrong and Linda Kelly Armstrong, Steven Wozniak, Dolores Huerta, and Jackie Chan
