Watch for a new middle school historical fiction novel, entitled, From the Heart of Lydia, that I have written with another author. The manuscript is now in the process of being edited by Sunbury Press, my new publisher. Although ghost writing is a way for authors to earn money, in this instance the two of us collaborated to research and write, as volunteers, for Darlene Colon, who is known as Lydia Hamilton Smith while interpreting her life dressed in period costume at many historical events in Pennsylvania.
