Writing on a Coke and a Prayer

My name is LM Long, and I'm a wife and mother to three very spirited little girls, and a crazy husband.  Ideally I'd spend every moment curled up on a rainy afternoon with an LM Montgomery novel in one hand, and a plate of Pecan Sandies in the other.  Unfortunately life, and the laws of nature, get in the way of those dreams.  I have always loved to write and tell a good story.  There is nothing more fun than watching the reaction to something I have said.  If I thought I was funny, I might have gone into comedy- but instead I became a regular old writer.  I hope you enjoy the world I've created, and please drop me a line or two.  There's nothing I love better than feedback.

Founder

My great aunt was a racist.

How's that for family history?

Then a week before she was going to die, we discovered she was still alive.

I was thrilled.  There's nothing like a living dead person to bring a family together.

Especially when she's a hoarder with no air conditioning, and decides to die in the middle of a Southern California summer.

Really and truly thrilled.

I was the one to discover the first letter, "Aryan Princess to Cannibals."

The photograph of my half-starved relatives smiling proudly into the camera, building a colony in the Amazon.  It would have been quite the sensation in the 1940's.

The idea that it could have survived, even more sensational.

Founder is loosely based on a true story and contains mature content, but no crude language or gratuitous sex.  Recommended for ages 14 and up.

Elise has been told she is too young to help with the restructuring of Founder.

Until she meets a boy that just may change everything.

Identity is a companion book to Founder.
