I really enjoyed reading this book. For sure my next vacation needs to be to New Halem (can you add a campground ��� not sure they will let me stay on the beach with the Parking Lot Prophet). The stories were full of interesting characters, just the kind of people you find in your own life. T...

What's in a Writer's Name?Kate Thompson is a writer's name. My daughter-in-law sent me a photo she took in a Scotland train station that was selling books by a Kate Thompson. My grandson checked out a book from his school library by Kate Thompson. Neither was me. You see, I'm not alone. There are several. British-Irish writer, Kate Thompson, writes children's books and clarifies on her Wiki that she is "not to be confused with Kate Thompson, the romantic novelist". There's a journalist/author...

I take my library to bed. I never leave home without it. One-thousand, seven-hundred and two books aren���t heavy. They fit in my purse. I started reading e-books the end of 2010. I was resistant in the beginning. I had a paper-book library big enough to wander through and after working on the computer all day, I wanted to pluck books off my shelves and thumb through the pages, not click or swipe on a reading device. My reading life changed the day I received notice that a book I put on hold...

You're respectfully invited In early Salt Lake City, the pioneers were quick to move their furniture outside on a cold winter night to make room for a dance.

���Corsets have always been worn, will be worn, and should be worn" Did pioneer women wear corsets? I didn't think much about it until I began my second novel and my protagonist, a 19th century Utah woman, needed dresses and skirts and shoes. But what about a corset? Surely not, frontier women plowed fields. They built fences, shoveled snow off their roofs, planted gardens, hauled water, chopped wood, and scrubbed floors. It took a whole day just to do laundry and it was a backbreaking...

"The destroying angels are abroad", the Deseret News, the local Salt Lake City, Utah, newspaper reported in June of 1877. The destroying angels were grasshoppers (Rocky Mountain Locusts), swarms of them, and reportedly, they could "darken the sky for three miles deep". A local woman described the day she went outdoors to see what was bumping against her windows and found millions covering her house, yard, garden and the laundry she'd hung out to dry. They ate the crops, window shades a...
