A Stranger in London Smoke
Life Along the DousinberryI decided this morning, a beautiful day in the Ozarks to reflect again on my published books. I have sent many out to those who have requested them, one as far away as Ireland. All of my books are limited editions a total of 1400 copies of which more than half are gone. One day there will be none left and I will have succeded in my dream of a published author. I am but a speck on a horizon of authors who have gained world fame, nevertheless I have fulfilled what I set out to do. Each published book was designed by me as was the illustrations. Morris Publishing printed them and the books are of enduring quality and beauty. One reader said to me that each of my books are like a box of chocolates, each chapter a different flavor and texture. I am deeply appreciative of this statement. Another reader said, anyone finishing Tiddleson, Son of Tiddle can only believe he exists. To anyone who is interested in more

Tiddleson, Son of Tiddle, is a delightfully, warm and moving fantasy/adventure novel. It is 303 pages, twelve chapters, illustrated and numbered first edition. It is the story of the Amicus people who stand no taller than a dandelion stem. The story begins at Wicklow Mountain in Ireland then journeys across an unforgiving sea to Wilderness America where on a high knoll deep within the Missouri Ozarks the clan of little people find safe haven inside an ancient limestone faintly marked with ancient Indian hieroglyphics. To survive the Amicus move with caution along paths so narrow a rabbit can hardly walk and travel looking over their shoulders, staring frightfully into the shadows. They often fight to the death to ensure the clan will survive one more day. Yet for all their hardships these remarkable humans retain their faith and independence.
