A Star Rises in Persia will be available for the first time in print by early March, and I'm taking pre-orders so think about how many copies you would like. I began this project about ten years ago and have shown it to authors and editors for feedback all this time. Unfortunately, Tommy Tenny beat me to the printer's while I was doing other things, but mine is different than his version although the core story is the same--based on the Book of Esther in the bible.

The novella is suited for ages 11 and up.The price per copy will be $10 or less and I'll update this information as soon as I have a definite amount.


Many thanks to my Writeen Crue for their critiques and encouragement during the last few years, and to Candy Abbott and Fruitbearer Publishing to bringing it to completion.
