Born in the middle of the 20th century (an experience he denies remembering but steadfastly refuses to reinact on the pretext of being too old), Jon Etheredge has labored a lifetime to avenge his honor, sullied in the fourth grade where he met and subsequently agitated Mrs. Ebinotia Mummelsome, a horrid rat of a woman who gave him a D-minus in Citizenship, tainting his permanent record...permanently.

He lives on a small tree farm in East Central Mississippi, the cultural headwaters of blues, jazz, and American literature. All the best writers come from Mississippi. Also catfish.

No, my books usually take a couple of years to before they're ready. That said, I've been busy on my next novel, "Passable Cats", and just to stay fresh, I've penned a few free short stories on my blog (http://jonetheredge.com). I'd love to hear your opinion of the latest story, "Assateague". It's a tad longish at just under 7K words.

What's with the book market nowadays? I can't give away my books unless I become a serial killer and get interviewed on Fox & Friends (and even then, I have include a kitten with each book). We're re-releasing "Dream Talker" with a new cover and hopefully, endorsements from the Midwest Book Review and others. Wasn't I supposed to be rich and famous by now?(less)

JoAnn Hill Hi Jon, Sounds to me like congratulations are in order. So great"Dream Talker has been picked up. I thoroughly enjoyed giving it a read through. Finally I'm starting on another book. I'm slow at my writing, so it's going to take a while. My blog has kept me occupied. I'm up to 2,240 hit's though. I will recommend "Dream Talker to my daughter and friends.
Best of luck with it! JoAnn Hill P.S. Love your bio.

On the positive side, while you lost the farm, as a fellow flying enthusiast, you have have avoided buying the farm.

JoAnn Hill Hello Jon,
Hope I caught you in time. I had suggested you send the new text to my Kindle, but in thinking it over, I think the pdf would be better. With that I can type in suggestions. Let me know what I should be doing. Your dealing with a novice computer operator here you know.

JoAnn Hill Hi Jon, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do to Abigail Dare.I enjoyed it a great deal. I have been working on 9 posts for the authors marketing group I'm takig part in, and useing excerpts from various chapters in my book, and I'm amazed and dissapointed in how many mistakes I have found. I'd like to rewite too. I payed a hefty sum to an editor, supposed to be a really good one. How is your wife doing with reading for me? I hope she hasn't given up.I'll be throughly interested in what she has to say. JoAnn
