Hey guys!
I am currently in the first research stages and first draft work on my next book. This book will deal the Bloody Seventh West Virginia, the Banner Regiment of the state during the Civil War. They fought at Antietam, Gettysburg, Cold Harbor and were at Appomattox. Really excited for this next journey

Huge publishing news
Where do begin?
Today I received a phone call very early in the business day, I saw it was from one of my potential publishers, and I figured they needed information for one of my proposals, little did I know that they had decided at their early morning meeting to accept my book "A West Virginia Rebel." I was floored, I honestly was speechless for a few minutes. I think the booking agent got a good chuckle from me when I said, "Listen, I'm just a public school teacher who loves to tell stories, this means the world to me." It's the truth, at the end of the day, it's my love of teaching and my love of history that drives me, and to have a book published feels like a great vindication of years worth of hard work.
