Oswego County Authors...A Day at the Fair

Mags and I spent the fourth of July at the Oswego County Fair at the "Local Authors" section of the fairgrounds. In addition to meeting some amazing people as they walked through the building and stopped to visit, our day was made all the more enjoyable because of the company we kept in our section. I want to introduce you to the local authors who spend the 4th of July at the fair with me. ~ Little Ol' Me ~ To order either of my books, click on the photo to the left or visit Amazon.com.

"At twenty-six, Paul Matthews has attained wealth, position, and popularity as a financial manager in one of New York’s leading companies.  His life of fast  cars, expensive restaurants, and beautiful women is the envy of his peers and  one he believes will keep him satisfied—until Brooke comes into his life.  Brooke’s beauty captures his attention the moment he sets eyes on her. Her  intelligence, talent, and strong character cause him to consider what part she  may play in his life.  Her strong faith, however, reminds him of a past he has  long tried to forget, one he rejected long ago and to which vowed never to  return." ~ Meet Nancy Henderson ~

autistic daughter had been abused at the hands of her twelve-year-old brother, Kate Rose spent years trying to cope with her family's tragedy. She nearly gave up hope when the justice system refused to protect her daughter and was exhausted at the long, drawn-out trial that seemed to go nowhere. Years later she is finally able to put the past behind her and becomes an advocate for those still living in silence. Taking the stage at the End Violence Against Women Conference, Kate tells the audience how she lived through the worst years of her life, and offers hope to victims still living with their secret." ~ Meet Tracy L Kinne ~ To order Tracy's books click on the photo to the right or visit Amazon.com.
