Elizabeth's novel is available online! For free!

Image
Elizabeth has worked for several years on a series of novels based on a fiction place called Mad Tom Farm. There are four novels, each set in a different season of the year. The first is Mad Tom Winter: Gray Man , and we are releasing it in serial from on www.wattpad.com We love how some writers such as Charles Dickens and more recently Alexander McCall Smith have released their books serially in a weekly newspaper.  It seems today's newspapers are screens, so we're excited to use wattpad.com to release this novel. You can read the book on your computer at the website, or download their free app on your phone or tablet. We'll release the chapters for free over the coming weeks, and we'll have the full book available for purchase for Kindles etc very soon. Not sure if they notify you when a new chapter is posted, but we plan to post on Saturdays. Go here: Mad Tom Winter: Gray Man #wattpad https://my.w.tt/UiNb/6bnG7boJJJ  Here's a map of the fic...

"Maurice Diggersby, the handyman at Mad Tom Farm, isn't one to run from perilous ground, but when  a guest shows up with a gun, and a genuine Tiffany lamp mysteriously appears in the midst of preparations for the annual Spring Meadowlark, he finds himself in need of more than his usual measure of practicality and wit to get to the bottom of things.  While the eccentric Bertram family struggles to get everything done, several troubling secrets converge around a barrage of unruly guests and a lawn crew that no one seems to have hired.

Throw in a missing bride, a situation with ants, ...
