Color a Fable!

I have a new book out. I got bored waiting for my edits to come back for Darkness Holds the Son, so I thought I'd publish two of my short stories.

The Magic Plum and The Cobbler's Daughter.

The book was originally going to be a flipbook where one of the stories would face one way, and the other upside down. Well, neither Amazon nor Draft2Digital could print them that way so I had to compromise. BUT the good news is...

Ka-Blam is going to make the flipbook. It will be larger than the ones on Amazon and Books2Read...magazine style, and the pages will be made specifically for coloring.

All of these books are going to be fun books for young and old, though and I have mine from Amazon coming in the mail soon. I'll take a photo when they arrive.

I did the pages myself. Here are a few samples. The print is large print (18 Garamond font) and the size of the book is 8.5 X 11 in. Ka-Blam's version is larger than that.

The Magic Plum is about a little boy who visits a fruit stand in a marketplace and is just about to bite into a plum when an old hag tells him a story about a faraway place where dragons live and if he eats the plum he will be stolen away. She takes the fruit from him before he can discover the truth and from then on he sets his mind to get that magic plum.

The Cobbler's Daughter is a story of a young lady who makes a pair of magic shoes that will make the wearer dance, and the boy who steals them.

You can get the Amazon edition now.
