I'm in Oklahoma working for a few weeks, teaching at the KC-135 school house, and this wonderous sight is right next to my hotel. I always seem to arrive here after the harvest but these pics were taken mere days before they harvested them. My new iPhone 13 took some nice photos.


Effacement is Out in Audio!

I'm very excited to announce that the audio version is available today at Google Play, Chirp, and Authors Direct!
More will be coming as they process the files. It should be available soon wherever you download your audiobooks.
Henry and Jenna did a wonderful job! This is more like an audio play, since they do all the voices, male and female, and narrate the appropriate sections as well. I hope you enjoy it!
