I’m pleased to share the YouTube interview that Ellin Bessner did with me and Dave Fleishman about Jacob and the Mandolin Adventure. It was a delight to discuss how I researched and wrote this historical novel as well as the “back story” about Morris Saxe. Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nqm8Dpz7q8E

I hope you’ll enjoy watching this video. Please tell friends and colleagues who might be interested.

Written on the Wind is now an e-book!

Uncategorized, , ,

I recently made a foray into the Land of Self-Publishing, and came out relatively unscathed. My historical novel,  Written on the Wind (HodgePog Books, 2001), which was out of print, is now available as a Kindle e-book on Amazon. Written on the Wind tells the story of eight-year-old twins, Sarah and Michael, who are caught up in the devastating events in Toronto 1954 when Hurricane Hazel hit an unprepared city.
