Morning's At Seven by Jonelle Fisher
"I am in AWE of Jo Fisher! Midway sounds like a fairytale. I had no idea what I was missing only thirteen miles away.
This beautiful author’s dear husband, Dr. Jack Fisher, took care of my babies and my son throughout his life. Jo sees and feels things I’m sure most others don’t. What a joy to read her interpretations. Just wait!”

—Lynne Chandler Brown, Psychotherapist and Author of Rational Awareness Therapy Handbook
Morning's At Seven is available as a paperback or hardcover edition.
Hardly A Lady by Frances Strickler
“Who we are is sometimes something very different than who we’ve been."
As a 94-year-old, Josie enjoys her granddaughter’s engagement party; she thinks about what people see, and the secrets she'll likely take to the grave as she recollects on her life as a small-town girl learning to make it on her own in the bigger cities of Northern Kentucky.
Set in the 1930s, Hardly A Lady is part historical fiction, part thriller, and all gripping. Frances Strickler captures the differences between two worlds in the same state—rural Kentucky and the burgeoning Newport—while
unfolding Josie's life lesson that sometimes the glitter and glamor of nightclub life has a dark and dirty underside.

Exiting the Bluegrass Turnpike by Benjamin Rue Silliman
Exiting the Bluegrass Turnpike is a queer post-modern coming-of-age tale with a Southern Gothic checklist of dysfunctional characters. Set in the early 1980s, it captures the culture of the early Reagan era as if Silliman’s cultural narrative referenced The Official Preppy Handbook. It describes not just the fashion but the WASP attitudes of the age, giving readers insight into old-money Kentucky.
The prose is structured like a memoir with vocabulary bordering on a Racine tragedy. The protagonist lacks many characteristics of a traditional hero but is by no means an antihero. Plathian influences shadow this tale from its opening sentence to its last chapter while not materializing the emblematic stereotypes. Exiting the Bluegrass Turnpike has all the mood of The Bell Jar and is chockfull of an erotic Capote-styled doomed romance and apparitions of Sothern Gothic stock characters any reader of the genre will recognize and enjoy.
— Mark Compton, author of Fruitcake
Bluegrass Sons by Erin Chandler
Paperback version only—Limited Edition hardcover is sold out
Bluegrass Sons is a true crime family saga set between Lexington, Kentucky, and the desert days and gaudy nights of 1970s Las Vegas, Nevada, with a little El Paso, Guatemala, and Savannah thrown in. The story is about Bradley Bryant, a United States Marine who lived a double life. The FBI labeled him "a one-man crime wave" responsible for the largest gun-running, drug-smuggling network in the United States. His family considered him their rock, his mother's favorite, and a successful Philadelphia businessman. For the first time in forty years, Brad Bryant tells his truth, recording hours of conversations with his niece, Erin Chandler. Bluegrass Sons includes historical testimonies from those who were along for that ride, giving exclusive interviews to Erin Chandler for this book. It's a tale of drugs, arms, assassinations, and espionage where your lies are your life even if you are one of the good guys.
