Historic Louisville Murders

What will Kentucky Book Festival visitors find on your table?

Copies of my most recent book and perhaps several others, plus an author very happy to discuss creepytopics and history. 

Whom do you invite to stop by? Who will benefit from reading your book?

Anyone and everyone who would like to talk! My books seem to be most enjoyed by those who enjoyhistoric true crime, history, and supernatural topics. 

Could you please tell us something curious about you and/or your book?

One of the little-known stories in Historic Louisville Murders is about the direct descendant of a U.S.president who was committed to an asylum for first-degree murder.

Is this your first time participating in Kentucky Book Festival? If yes – what are you looking forward to themost? If you’ve participated before – what was your favorite experience at the Festival?

The staffdoes such a wonderful job, and it attracts people who are enthusiastic about books, always a nicething to see these days.
