IT'S MURDER!

CRIME SCENE:
      The Chiseler's Inn

THE VICTIM:
      Sheriff Moose Perry

THE SUSPECT:
      Sam Maple, leader of Cougarville, a small gathering of gypsies

PROSECUTOR:
      Regan Candolin, an alcoholic, domineering attorney with everything to lose

ONLY PERSON WHO KNOWS THE TRUE KILLER:
      Lolly Candolin, a young girl who wants nothing more than her father's love

Will Lolly keep quiet, let an innocent man die, and win her father's approval; or will she speak up and risk losing her father forever? So much pressure on such a young girl.

LESSONS FROM THE GYPSY CAMP, the fascinating debut novel by Elizabeth Appell, has all the answers. Presented in both hardcover and KINDLE editions, Lessons From the Gypsy Camp enjoys top rankings on Amazon: 4.7 out of 5 stars!



“One reason for not being angry is that you might go to hell where it is hot all the time and flames burn your feet and you breathe terrible gases. Not being angry is one of God’s rules.”  -- Lolly Candolin

Writing Contest Deadline Extended

Due to requests, we've decided to extend the deadline of our 9th Annual Short Story Writing Contest . You now have until August 31, 2011 to get your entry in for contest consideration! We publish the top 10-15 stories from the contest in an annual anthology (try saying that five time fast) and the top 2-3 stories receive a monetary reward on top of that! Most of our contest winners are new, unknown authors seeking a little publicity and exposure. So, grab that story that you've worked on, and worked on, and worked on and submit it for the contest. We give every story every consideration. We'd love to see what you've been working on!
