Colonial Acres

Colonial Acres is a fiction novel about a cast of characters drawn to this sprawling bit of paradise in southwestern Virginia. Each character has been pulled into the vortex that is Colonial Acres by different means, but for the very same purpose, that they might be changed. Follow each as they individually come to a new and better version of themselves through the events that transpire within the bucolic landscape of the Virginia countryside. For some, the need for a change is front-and-center in their mind, their foremost concern each and every waking minute. For others, the change will come in fully unexpected ways from equally unexpected directions. There is danger. There is romance - in a tastefully innocent rendition - that is sure to keep the female audience engaged. Also, you will find sufficient fisticuffs to keep the male reader engaged as well. The author's take on Colonial Acres is that it is a Hallmark movie with a few rough edges.

Having worn many hats in a working career that has spanned decades; from carpenter to plumber, electrician to industrial control, truck driver to school bus driver, there has always been one overriding desire, that of being a published author. Having long since given up on the customary path to the published world, I have pressed onward with a new course, and one that is an ever-growing segment of literature, that being a more hybrid approach. It is my desire to put forth quality work that a reader may take pleasure in and quite possibly gain some deeper level of understanding of this thing we call the human condition.
