D.W. Frauenfelder began writing stories at the tender age of very young and his first novel was the critically-acclaimed (by his teacher) "Dawe and the Typhoon," about a boy from the South Pacific who has to shift for himself when his family is wiped out by a storm. Recently, Frauenfelder realized that "Dawe and the Typhoon" was probably written in imitation of the Newberry Award-winning novel "Call It Courage" by Armstrong Sperry, though he has no recollection of reading this book.

Canaan in 1200 BC

I'm big on digs.

One of my favorite things to do as a child was pry bottle caps out of the wet Alabama clay.

Image: Khirokitia, a Cypriot Neolithic site.

In graduate school, my guilty pleasure was Bronze Age archeology. Longtime readers of this blog may remember a novel set in Greece in 2000 BC that I excerpted (I still don't know what I'm going to do with it).

So when I discovered Richard Abbott,

D.W.’s Quotes

“[when]asked, “What should I do if I want to become a writer?”
“Well,” Doris said, with that steely twinkle in her dark eyes, “My best advice for
you, honey, is to stop if you possibly can! And if you just can’t, then get ready to work
like hell. Hang onto your day job. And remember, you may not make a living, but you’ll
make a wonderful life.”
― Doris Betts
