THE AUTHOR

Born and raised in central Indiana, the author moved to the hills of southeastern Kentucky upon retiring from the corporate world. Although an avid writer since her second grade of school, retirement allows her to more actively pursue this first love for writing.

Several years in the insurance field and over twenty-two years in the telephone industry have provided the author inestimable insight into people and their myriad situations. A short stint living in the area about which she writes and growing up in the fifties gives her additional resources upon which she has drawn.

In addition to this work of fiction, the author had one book published in 1990, "And The Sun Shines Bright", and is well into the writing of another. Kentucky, its people and breathtaking landscape, provides her with endless possibilities as background for the tales she weaves to entertain you.

THE BOOK

After completing her senior year of high school, despite aggravations with her father and stepmother, and knowing the final revelation of what really happened to her mother when she was a child, Bailey Dabbs falls in love, marries and happily enjoys married life and the children she and her husband are blessed with. Her happiness is tragically shaken by two separate fatal events that rob her of her husband, two sons and one daughter.

Bailey rallies, attends college, starts an accounting business, then accepts a one-year teaching assignment, out of state, when her remaining child, a daughter goes of f to college. Her new life -takes her into the southeastern corner of the hills of Kentucky, introducing her into a new sect of society, superstitions, practices and habits. She meets and becomes fast friends with an old crone and her big black crow, Josiah.

Bailey receives an endearing gift of a long-eared beagle pup, Flip-Flop, from her new found friend, lover and, hopefully, future husband. She becomes enchanted with her pupils in the state's last one-room schoolhouse and points of interest in the area: the two o'clock spring, the slave house, the wedding rock and an encounter with a whistle pig.
