The Story Behind The Hedgewitch

Before I ever took a chance on submitting a manuscript, there was The Hedgewitch.

I finished writing it while my sister Tammy was still with us.

After she passed away, I thought about sending it to a publisher. It would be the first time I'd ever taken that chance. I wasn't going to do it.

But I could hear my sister in my head, saying:

“Do it, Bubba!!”

So I did.

I submitted The Hedgewitch. That decision marked the beginning of my publishing journey.

Since then, I've kept writing—new stories, new characters, new worlds. But I haven't forgotten that moment, or the voice that gave me the push I needed.
