Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Echoes of the Past: My Dirt Road Diary is a collection of short stories and blurbs about my life. Some are straight up shenanigans, others are purely nostalgic-and then there's a few that come straight from my soul. These are stories that, long after I'm gone, I'd like my family and friends to remember. And maybe just as importantly, they will be a gift to myself one day when my mind gets tired. One of my goals in sharing my stories is to help prompt memories in you to share your own. You never know who'd love to hear them. I'm a fun loving gal who can find humor in almost anything, and it's a good thing since I've always had a knack for getting myself into predicaments. I'm originally from Hyden, a small town in southeastern Kentucky. I grew up in a holler. Yes, I said, "holler." If I were caught calling it a "Hollow," I'd have to cut my own switch! If you're from Appalachia, you know what that means. Hurricane Creek is the holler I grew up in. Even though it's just a dot on the map, the memories I took from there are so vast, they simply cannot be measured.Even though I titled this a diary, I chose to list them randomly, not in chronological order. They're funny, reflective, and often times sentimental. Will they change your life? No, no, they won't. But maybe, just maybe, they'll help brighten your day when you get a glimpse at my forty-six years of light-hearted fun.Take a walk with me back to the 1970s. That's where we'll start . . .

Book excerpt: Friday Night Lights meets Mare of Easttown in this small-town mystery about an unlikely private investigator searching for a missing waitress. Pay Dirt Road is the mesmerizing debut from the 2019 Tony Hillerman Prize recipient Samantha Jayne Allen. Annie McIntyre has a love/hate relationship with Garnett, Texas. Recently graduated from college and home waitressing, lacking not in ambition but certainly in direction, Annie is lured into the family business—a private investigation firm—by her supposed-to-be-retired grandfather, Leroy, despite the rest of the clan’s misgivings. When a waitress at the café goes missing, Annie and Leroy begin an investigation that leads them down rural routes and haunted byways, to noxious-smelling oil fields and to the glowing neon of local honky-tonks. As Annie works to uncover the truth she finds herself identifying with the victim in increasing, unsettling ways, and realizes she must confront her own past—failed romances, a disturbing experience she’d rather forget, and the trick mirror of nostalgia itself—if she wants to survive this homecoming.

Download or read book Souderton written by Souderton Telford Main Streets and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located midway between Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley, Souderton was settled by predominantly German immigrants. Farmers and craftsmen with an entrepreneurial spirit, they took full advantage of opportunities to provide goods and services to a growing community. In 1852, Henry O. Souder offered the free use of his land to the North Penn Railroad, diverting the Gwynedd to Bethlehem route through the bountiful Indian Valley and transforming Souderton into a lively commercial center. Incorporated in 1887, the borough soon boasted a booming economy. First a hub for cigar manufacturing and later textiles, Souderton rapidly expanded. Feed mills, lumberyards, bakeries, a bank, and a large department-store-lined Main Street. Today, these same stores and mills house a new generation of artists, designers, and impresarios, reflecting a vibrant, enterprising downtown. Souderton traces the commercial evolution of the town while capturing the remarkable people and events that created this community and transformed Main Street--the hill and the hollow--from the site of a colorful soapbox derby to the venue of an international cycling Grand Prix.
