As some of you may know, I have written some stories for kids set in the colonial era. The first was Blackthorn Winter, the second was Susan Creek, and the third, Two Williams, is now out. Here is a little descriptive copy from the back cover: Caught up in the American War for Independence, young …
First in a String of Shameless Appeals
As the title mentions, this is the first in a string of shameless appeals. For many years now, Logos School has offered a short course of teacher training in the summer.

Here and There
