New Novel By Norman Author Set for Spring Release

Norman based author Marilyn A. Hudson and Whorl Books announce the publication of her latest work for April.  

Scream all you want. No one is coming to your rescue.

Her luck has always been bad, her decisions worse, and the 'American Dream' is her nightmare. 

He is the envy of many, wants for nothing, and makes it all look so easy.

They are about to meet and one of them will pay the ultimate price.

There are among us dark souls planting seeds of evil in fields most of us don't even care to venture.

In the shadows, along the borders of our civilized world, they reap from the flesh of the lost a foul harvest.

But some things grow tougher in the shadows.  Sometimes they fight back.

See what the preview readers had to say:

"I felt it was very well written. With a lot of cliffhanges that kept you just so intrigued. You never really knew what was around the next corner. Loved the book - now waiting for the movie. "-- Lorene Young, Case Management Assistant

"This is a great read, the manner in which you build fear and delusion in the characters made me wonder if the main character was in danger or just loosing her mind. Good build up of suspense." --Dustin Allen Smith, Mental Health Clinician

Coming soon to Amazon and select outlets.

Thanks to the Underground Monster Carnival and OKC Edge!

Saturday was a fun day with some great people and at an incredible event in Oklahoma City. The air buzzed with people having a good time.  Our booth was visited by great people, other local artists and authors, and had many opportunities to meet new people.  I met several new authors on a panel on "The Writer's Mind' sponsored by the OKC Edge.  These included: Scott Cosby, Tommy B. Smith, Adrean Messmer, Don Rosencrans. Hosted by Will Harrison.   Author friends Steven Wedel and Dennis McDonald were also on hand.

Oklahoma authors Hudson and Lemmons teamed up to reissue a popular title, first appearing in 2005.  The story is one popular with people of all ages since so many children participated in the original event and can't wait to share memories with children and grandchildren. In addition, elephants are one of the most popular animals in any animal sanctuary or zoological program. There is an almost instant kinship with the marvelous animals that keeps people coming back.

 

Readers had good things to say about the story:

 

"An inspiring read." Megan Miles Alba, Educator

"A Must have for any library collection on Oklahoma."  Rosemary Czarski, Librarian

"A fun read for all ages." Bonnie Smith, Educator

 

Lemmons added the whimsical illustrations with delight because she was one of those plucky "Judy's Kids" who raised money for Judy the elephant!  The authors hope to build a program around the events and visit libraries and schools in the state in 2015.

Whorl Books will make the work available in early fall of 2014.

New Novel Coming Soon

Norman author Marilyn A. Hudson announces the soon to be published novel "Foul Harvest."  A serial killer and a girl from the streets are on a collision course.  What happens when a killer who has lost all respect for human life confronts a girl who has nothing left to loose?  The work is due out mid-fall from Whorl Books.

 

"Haunting" and "Insightful" say readers.

"Scream if you must" because "no one is coming to your rescue."
