I have been very busy with rewritting book 4 "The Curse of McDoon" and I am almost done with the first draft. The audio book of "Shadows of Creek Hollow" should be out sometime in June just in time for the summer vacation travel down Route 95 (ugh!).

Once that is done, I am going to move into doing the audio version of "Shadows of Creek Hollow" in January/February.
With everything currently in print, I am "up to date" with the story line. I have started the rewrite of book 4 which will be called "The Curse of McDoon" an…
