A short story I wrote a number of years ago, The Tree Thing, that was published by the Jackpine Writers Bloc in their anthology The Talking Stick, is now published on both Smashwords and Amazon. It’s free on Smashwords http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/431087 and .99 on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JU0WCRA (until I can get them to pricematch.) Check it out.
The Tree Thing is the inspiration for Earth Legend, the last book in the Legends trilogy that will be published in a matter of weeks. Laura Shinn is already working on the cover. I can hardly wait because she did a wonderful job with the first two books. I can also hardly wait to get this book out to the reading public!
