Pure Southern Genteel

Welcome!

 

Hi! I'm a free-lance writer and author. My articles have appeared in Good Old Days, The Front Porch Magazine, and Out of the Boxx. I write humorous tales and personal musings for the American Chronicle ezine. If you like variety, look around my site. My first book, "See No Evil, My Pretty Lady", a romantic mystery, is on the following pages.

Yelling he’d been skewered like a shish ke-bob, Harry leaped away, abandoning his sock to our herd of stampeding feet.  He cut the fastest jitterbug we’d ever seen as he fled the room.....
