Profile Information

My hometown:
Pine Mountain Valley, Ga.

It's just a little unincorporated community nestled between two mountains at the southern end of the Appalachians. It is the setting for my book, Keechie.
My books:
Keechie

Ever since young Brian discovered his first arrowhead, he knew that he wanted to be an archaeologist. There was just something about holding an object that had been created by someone from an earlier civilization that spoke to him.
The story begins as Brian, on one of his frequent field trips, discovers an old half-breed Indian woman. Completely self-sufficient and content with her circumstances in life, Keechie teaches him the skills of survival, along with a love and appreciation of the natural and supernatural worlds.
The survival skills learned from Keechie prove to be the difference between life and death many years after her death for Brian and his own family in the final chapters of this story.
It begins in rural Georgia in the 1950’s – a shameful time of racial bigotry and segregation of the races, contrasted by being referred to as the “Age of Innocence”.

Phil, why would you want to be friends with someone who looks like this????? I am kind of computer illiterate, and will have to get my husband (who would be very jealous of your beard -- his is very short) -- to send in a real photo of me. Thanks for the welcome. Arlene

Keechie sounds to be a great story of spontaneous enlightenment.

Glad to see you here, Brew. I don't even know if I have a page here. I've got them in so many places that I can't keep up.

I've been on the forum for a while now and just realized that that didn't automatically make me a member here. So... here I am!

I am looking for my lost tribe. Actually, the search began even before a very remarkable acquaintance accidentally made over the Internet sent me the initial podcasts of Tribes, but I could say that listening to Seth Godin has intensified it. Th...
