4. The impedance for the title of the book, The Wolf’s Moon, came about by the phase of the moon in January, Wolf Moon. You can read the blog about the title here: http://wp.me/p2Oumz-3r and great information here that was reblogged from Rob Mahan/Once in a Blue Moon: http://wp.me/p2Oumz-Y
5. The people in the area that I live were also the impedance for the content of the book. The book takes place in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. You can read about this here: http://wp.me/p2Oumz-2w
6. I have 1 short story ready for edit, another short story WIP and the sequel to The Wolf’s Moon is my WIP to be released the first half of 2015. At this point, I am not ready to reveal the covers or details for any of the three WIP’s…but…soon, very very soon. I will be looking for bloggers to help promote at each release date. If you are interested just drop me a message. All help would be greatly appreciated!!
7. I have been married for 43 years. I have 2 wonderful children, all grown up…a boy and a girl. My son has 3 boys and my daughter has a boy and a girl. They all vary in ages from 16 all the way down to 4. Grandkids are the best gift God could ever bestow to anyone. For us, it keeps us young as we remember the “curse” we put on them when they were younger. We didn’t mean it really…but they remind us that we said, “I wish your kids will be just as bad as you are!!”

You are so welcome Dear Kitty!! I found it interesting to read the “About” in your blog. I had no idea that Anne Franke began her letters with “Dear Kitty!” I learn so much just from visiting everyone’s blog, so thank you for nominating me for this prestigious award!! I was thinking about a book you may like since you like Anne Franke. The Book is “The Double Helix” and is about the discovery of the DNA/RNA molecule. What is interesting is that a woman in the book, Rosalind Franklin, plays a major role in the discovery of the molecule, but her ideas (partly because of the times) were buried. She was also Jewish and there is another book that my wife, Sandy, read after that one named “Rosalind Franklin.” You may find them both very interesting! Thanks again for nominating me for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award! The link on the website directs the reader to your page on the original award 🙂
