Well, let me assure - that stereotype couldn't be farther from the truth….We're your neighbors, your co-workers, and your friends. You see us at our kid's soccer games, or at the neighborhood movie theater, or at your local restaurant.

“I have an exceptional daughter.

The Accidental Farmers
“When Tim and Liz Young decided to leave their comfortable suburban life and become first-time farmers in rural Georgia, they embarked on a journey that would change their lives. The Accidental Farmers reveals how the couple learned that hamburgers, bacon, and eggs don't come from the supermarket but from real animals that forge emotional bonds with their human caretakers. Seeking a middle path between a meatless lifestyle and the barbarism of factory food, Tim and Liz created Nature's Harmony Farm, a sustainable oasis where rare breed animals and humans live together searching for something nearly lost by both humans and the animals...how to live naturally off the land. Rather than a how-to guide, this book is a personal memoir of the Young's journey to farming and is sure to delight those interested in moving to the country or simply learning more about the struggles of sustainable farming.”
Hickory Road Ramblings, Essays and Photographs on Life and Gardening
“a compilation of Barbara Jean McHugh's essays and photographs depicting her life as a writer, gardener and artist. Ron Kovach, senior editor of The Writer magazine writes: ‘You don't have to live in rural America to appreciate this lovely book about nature and gardening and country living. Dipping into these gentle essays and evocative photographs I have found is the perfect antidote to busy urban lives in our increasingly complicated digital world. Barbara writes soulfully and well of the deceptively “simple things" that are actually quite meaningful- feeling cool breezes, being dazzled by the sight of fireflies at night, picking berries, attending to her flower bed, watching a blanket of drifting snow and moonlight shadows.’”
Playing With Wild Horses
“an effort to share what I have learned about horses (more specifically wild horses) and about using positive reinforcement during their training in order to build a happy partnership with them. “
Beyond the Snows of the Andes
“a story of struggle, survival, tragedy, growth and self realization set against one of the poorest, most exotic countries in South America. “

FICTION
Nature Survival, War, and other Hardship
Catseye
“This story of adversity is deeply moving, captivating, and entrancing. Soon to be an American classic, this book will take you back to a time of practicality and resolve. This new author will take you inside the boys’ home with a pervasive illusion of reality and such descriptive detail, you will swear you were there, and you will wish that you weren’t.”
GONE WITH THE TIDE and other stories
Includes story: “SURVIVAL--A graphic story about the struggle to survive in the wilds of Alaska.”
Run, Run! A Dust Storm Is Coming/¡Corre, corre! Ahí viene la polvareda
To read to children. “historical fiction. It will transport the younger readers to the "Dirty Thirties" or the Dust Bowl Years”
Until the Robin Walks on Snow
“It is 1922. An immigrant family and their devoted midwife struggle to save a tiny premature baby. Inspired by real events in Norwich, Connecticut, this historical fiction novella about determination, family, faith, and friendship includes a story chapter about the family's Polish and Lithuanian Christmas Eve traditions. Appendices include a List of Sources Consulted and Author's Notes about the facts, family history, and research behind the story.”
Angels, The Devil and an East Wind (Manchester Mysteries)
“Manchester in 1845 is under threat. Attempting to escape the poverty of the countryside huge numbers of people continue to pour into the city only to discover the destitution of the town. In one of the worst slum areas it eventually becomes clear that a multiple murderer is at work. Against the threat of epidemic disease those in authority struggle to bring sense and order to an over-crowded, chaotic world.”
Sideshow at Honey Creek
“a story of the desparate struggle for survival on the Texas frontier during the last bitter winter of the Civil War. It chronicals the efforts of the Ike Burns family and their friends in a grim fight against the elements, Union agitators, the Comanche, Confederate indifference, and sometimes each other on the very edge of western expansion in late 1864. The events are true and the main characters are based on the lives of real people. The author has done his job recreating the era and basing his story on original research and actual events.”
Providence
Christian homestead romance.

Politics, Terrorism, and Intrigue/Conspiracy
An Act of Self-Defense
“It is ten years into the future and the nation’s government is nearing financial and moral collapse. A small group (the TLR) believes deadly force is necessary to save individual liberty from the two-party political aristocracy that divides and controls Congress. They believe dictatorial powers will soon be claimed by the federal government...In this novel, I examine the issue that Thomas Jefferson predicted we would be forced to deal with. All three branches of our federal government have ignored the Constitutions protection of the individual’s rights. They have increased their own powers far beyond the limits provided in the Constitution. But what can we do about it? If our liberties, our right to make our own choices, are diminishing with every year, how do we ever regain them? Is deadly force justified?”

Part 1 of series (all at this link: Day Eight Series
“When Trevor Leighton stumbles upon a distress note written by the daughter of multi-millionaire Damon Winters, he attempts to do the right thing: turn it in. But the note isn’t what it seems, and it leads Trevor on a dangerous path to uncover the most incredible technology the world has ever known: a super intelligent human being simulating inside a computer program. Not only did Trevor unwittingly have a hand in creating the simulated human, but his new work to alter it will push his life – and the world – one step closer to a catastrophic event. Part I of the Day Eight series is just the beginning of Trevor’s thrilling adventure to prevent a disaster far worse than any ever conceived by humanity.”

The Last Pilgrims
“Michael Bunker, author of the Amazon.com bestselling non-fiction book Surviving Off Off-Grid, would like to introduce you to one of the most exciting, heart-pounding, and unique novels to come around in a generation. More than your typical post-apocalyptic faire, The Last Pilgrims could well be one of the most important and prescient novels of our time. Twenty years in the future is five-hundred years in the past. It is just two decades after the worldwide societal collapse and the Vallenses, an Amish-like “plain people” living and surviving in what was once Central Texas, are under attack by the King of Aztlan and his armies. The pacifistic Vallenses are defended by the shadowy Ghost Militia and their inspiring leader Phillip, a militant freeman who wages a guerilla war with Aztlan.”
