Wow! What Was That!" New Work Seeks to Help Newbie "UAP SPOTTERS"

"What is that?"  

Everyone is looking up these days! Things are being seen and studied more than ever.  A lot of people are realizing they are unfamiliar with what should be in the sky, what can be there sometimes, and how to measure is something is truly strange.  

"What is That?: A Basic Guide to UAP Spotting" offers some tips and helps. The author uses the term "UAP Spotter" to identify a growing citizen-based observation group, often armed with cameras and videos actively watching the skies. 

A great help to those 12 and older who are beginning to explore the topic and want to "UAP Spot" but are confused by the activities of the night skies. What is natural? Common? Strange? How to tell the difference??  Available from Amazon in paperback and E-Format.

  

 

Oklahoma's State Storytelling Group Donates Book by Hudson to Iceland Library

 It is always a delight to see where my books travel. Love catching them in libraries and on shelves in shops. Now, I can add this delightful event. 

"The country of Iceland is known for its high literacy rate, a country that loves poetry and stories, both written and oral. Well now it can add one more book about stories and storytellers.

When Chester Weems recently traveled to Iceland he took a new copy of Marilyn Hudson’s book Stories Center Stage: Storytelling in Modern Oklahoma. 

Chester went to the public library in Akureyri, the second largest city, of about 20,000, in northern Iceland. They have a very modern library, the newest in Iceland. Chester presented Marilyn’s book to Doddi Jonsson, a staff member and an Icelandic author himself, to be added to the library’s collection. 

So, Marilyn is now,way up north, as are all the Territory Tellers in her book."

There is a photo - so I am told - showing Chester presenting the book to Mr. Jonsson taken by Kim Weems who traveled the country with her dad.

Kansas UFOs

 Kansas is often termed one of the "fly over" lands. A space to be crossed to get to something more interesting. As a Kansas native born in the state the "sunflower state" has much to offer. Its history long, rich, and more diverse than many suppose and its natural wonders and views hauntingly lovely.

As a child of the Kansas wheat belt, I grew up living under a vast blue sky and enjoying the song of the Meadowlark, fields of wheat rippling like a golden ocean, and seeing the bright yellow and green of the sunflower on a warm summer day. 

Children grew up seeing every type of aircraft fly over (from airports or bases) and knew the look of the commercial planes on a high altitude long haul, and the short hopper planes crop-dusting, surveying or making short hops. 

I knew from experience and shared stories that other things were seen over those majestic fields of grain. Thus, Sunflower Saucers: Kansas UFOs was born and the small book based on my personal experiences, Encounter in Kansas.  Both are available on Amazon.

Author thanked for contributing to new work: Vivia: The Legend of Vivia Thomas by Linda Neal Reising

Vivia: The Legend of Vivia Thomas by Linda Neal Reising.  It is an amazing and creative telling of the story of the mysterious "Vivia Thomas" of Oklahoma folklore. Through poetry the author brings insight and emotion to the movements of the story. It is well worth the reading and a great addition to poetry collections. The haunting tale of love and its high points and its deepest, darkest moments is expressed with a deft hand and a firm, lyrical voice. 

 

Some New Projects Nearing Completion

 Due out later in April, these two works are sure to please. Authors Cullan Hudson and Marilyn A. Hudson, who teamed up for the suspense thriller The Mound, collaborate again with a short guide to stories of UFO's/UAP's over Route 66 in Oklahoma.  The popularity of the first volume of Sooner Saucers demanded a second one and this one is full of stories - many never before shared tales - of sightings in Oklahoma. In addition, a short annotated biographical section introduces the people who wrote about, researched or made special history in Oklahoma related to the topic. Also, events are conveyed so their place in history - and relationship to other events - are not lost. UFO/UAP studies reveal there is a lot of "chaos theory": what happens in one place impacted events somewhere else or in simple terms if it was seen in one place it was seen somewhere else thus validating the larger history of the events. Despite this, most records of the Air Force and stories shared over the years liked to portray the sightings as very locative and isolated from one another. Marilyn A. Hudson will do a zoom presentation for Oklahoma MUFON in July on her research and the new works.
