Brief Author Bio: I'm a transplanted Kootenay-ite from British Columbia, enjoying the ocean here. I'm writing by hand again this year, pen to paper. It's a great way to take a break from the computer, and it's surprising what flies onto the page about three pages in! |

Synopsis: Alamo Dreams
The Alamo and Its Ghosts...a history student working on her master's degree is chosen for a month-long research project. She will assist her professor in the Alamo's research library, looking for anomalies in the widely accepted version of the Alamo's history. As she becomes more deeply entangled in her research, she is visited by the Alamo's famous ghosts, and then, by William Barret Travis, the Alamo's commander on that fateful day. He begins to tell her his version of events, which were lost with his death at the beginning of the last day's battle.
