Basil Pearl was born and raised on a Tennessee farm. Given her grandfather’s name, she grew up sitting in his lap and hearing stories of yesteryear. She learned of times that were not kind to those who dug out a living from a small piece of dirt. Basil has developed a great appreciation for the preservation of family farms all across the nation.

And the Show Continues

A Ron Shaw ShowLast week I was totally honored to be the guest on the Ron Shaw Show, an online radio show on ArtistFirst Radio Network. For one complete hour, Ron and I chatted it up about many things that are not only interesting for readers, but for Indie authors as well. Although I was totally a nervous wreck, Ron made it fun and kept the conversation flow constant. It was a most delightful and fun show. And

“Time seemed to stand still as she noticed three droplets of blood splattered on the Indian's cheek. Crimson red, she thought. Three crimson red droplets. The color of the rubescent calla lilies in her mother's garden. Her mother had explained the wine colored flower meant strength, and passionate courage.

Basil Pearl, Middlesettlements: Second Edition
