"Spotlighting Amos Wyse and A GiveAway

Bio:

I am a semi-retired man who is happiest with some sort of dirt on my hands. I have an amazing wife, five sons and a pair of Labradors keeping me on my toes. I spent the summers of my youth in a small town in the Midwest. Much of the Barnville Stories come from people and places I knew then and keep dear to me now. One of the fondest memories I have from that time includes my grandmother reminding me to wave at passing trains “so that people know we are a friendly town.” We need more of that today.

Interview 

What pushed you into writing?

I have been telling stories my whole life. Many involved the memories of people I knew and the values they held dear. My wife, Laura J. Marshall, has been after me for years to write one down. When she offered to co-write with me, I ran out of excuses. “Planting Seeds” was that story. She then had me continue Caleb and Ruby’s story for another four shorts. I am in her debt for believing in me. 

What is Next?

We just released the sixth story revolving around the town of my youth renamed “Barnville” for these stories. We are currently shopping a bit different book to publishers. This new work would not be a Barnville story, but I think we can expect to hear more from Hannah, the Amish Shop Girl, as well.
