I'm suspending Tuesday
Tidbits for November and December to run a series on a new novella collection
I'm in, The
MISSAdventure Brides Collection.
First, in November, I’ll host each of the authors in this
collection as they talk about the heroines in their stories, while my posts about the hero, setting, history,
inspiration, take-away, and antagonist in my story, “ZOLA’S CROSS-COUNTRY
ADVENTURE”, will be feature on each of the other collection authors’ blogs or
social media. Then in December, I’ll post the
one about my story here on my blog.
Seven daring damsels don’t let the norms of
their eras hold them back. Along the way these women attract the attention of
men who admire their bravery and determination, but will they let love grow out
of the adventures?
