Celebrating My Newest Historical Fiction Novel

When the Great Depression came calling, fellowship and community were often in short supply. It was each man for himself, as the saying goes. Untested survival skills initiated courage, endurance, and a fair amount of creativity—which is not to say that wisdom always attended the bright ideas.

A Place Called Home

Her brother calls it opportunity.
She dubs it half-baked nonsense.
Whether they give-and-take or push-and-shove,
It’s time to hit the highway.

Spring 1937. When their landlady kicks Millie and her unemployed brother to the curb, they load up their decrepit Tin Lizzy and search for work, a place to sleep, the means to eat, and maybe a friendly face or two to welcome them along the way. In their wake is the weight of abandonment, of leaving a loved one behind.

Everything in the rearview mirror is lost to them, and the future looks as dim as the path illuminated by the rattletrap’s old headlamps. Every stopover bears evidence of hard times, and no matter where they travel, bad things come in waves.

Millie knows plenty about dance and bicycle marathons that pay out big rewards for the determined few who hold on until the end, but her big brother’s latest idea takes the cake, and Millie isn’t biting. Not this time. Who in their right mind would attempt to travel 2,000 miles or more on a pair of roller skates? Something better is bound to turn up. It has to.
