Meet Maybeth (hardcover) is now available for checkout from twenty-one separate libraries throughout four states!


(5/19/25)

It’s been a while since I’ve made a post. This spring has been busy, with all sorts of things going on, including horrible distractions.

First off, respecting my title, I thought I’d provide a comprehensive update on where you can check out and read my latest book for free.

Here are the counties with libraries in Florida: Calhoun, Dixie, Franklin, Gilchrist, Jefferson, Leon (at the State Library), Lafayette, Levy, Madison (2 locations), Pasco, Polk, Suwannee, Taylor, and Wakulla.

And here are the counties in Georgia: Decatur, Grady, Miller, and Seminole.

In Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Maybeth’s in the Chapin Memorial Library, and up in Indiana she can be found in the Crawfordsville District Public Library.

Thanks again very much to all the librarians supporting my work! I’ll continue to try and put out only the best that I can manage.

As a reminder, if you don’t live in any of these areas, you can still ask your local librarian to consider stocking one or all of my titles. There’s also inter-library loan, of course, as well as free library eBooks. I’m now in both the Overdrive and Hoopla networks.  All you need is a library card and a participating local institution.


In other news, I’m on something like chapter nine of the first draft of my sequel to the fantasy story I released in 2023. I know, slow going, right? I was on chapter two in January! But remember, I was in the midst of a fight with one of my distributors—a fight I’ve since won, but it didn’t come cheap!

So, it will be a while yet before my next book. But I’m still really happy with how it’s progressing. 

From here on out I’ll try and do a better job of keeping you posted.


As for the “horrible distractions” I mentioned, I really probably shouldn’t say anything, but I’ve been so disgusted lately that I’ve got to get this out… CLICK HERE for that separate post.
