Margie's dream had always been to write a book and after reaching her eightieth birthday, she decided that if it were ever to be accomplished, she had better get started. Being an avid "cruiser," she drew from her experiences of cruising to the Panama Canal to use as an environmental background for her first book. Much of the action takes place on a cruise ship and the ports and excursions mentioned are very real. Margie explained that "having a book published at age 85 is a little surreal. I am beyond thrilled that this has happened and being a very optimistic person, I planned this book as the first in a trilogy and have hopes of being able to accomplish that goal."

Hello! I am Shauntra Maddison, Louisiana/Texas girl who loves to cook! I call myself a Creole Texan since I get the best of both worlds whenever it comes to southern cooking. I get the creole Cajun flare from Louisiana and the comfort Texan cuisine from the Lone Star state. I have always had a passion for cooking. It all stems down from my beautiful mother, my angel, may she rest in peace. As a young child, my mother always had me in the kitchen. While my other cousins got to lay around and play during Thanksgiving, I was up early cooking in the kitchen. Cooking always allowed me to be creative with the taste and the look. Honestly, you eat with your eyes so I always made sure my food looked appealing.

The Bass Reeves Trilogy

When I heard Morgan Freeman declare in an interview on CNN that Bass Reeves was his dream role, I suspected, like a good deputy with a hunch, that I had just found my next project, my next obsession—even my next life, which is what a new perspective should inevitably give a writer, if it’s a worthy one. “You ain’t hear a lot of stuff about Bass Reeves,” said Freeman, appearing already to slip into character. “Nobody’s ever tackled him. He was one of the most well-known deputy marshals in the West in his time. I want to do Bass Reeves.” Freeman was right. I had not heard a lot of stuff about Bass Reeves; in fact, I had not heard the name once. How could I not automatically trust Freeman’s judgment of character, given that his filmography includes such wise choices as Street Smart, Glory, Driving Miss Daisy, Unforgiven, The Shawshank Redemption, Seven, and Amistad? Without much delay, I ordered the only two books I could find that existed on the subject of Bass Reeves—Art. T. Burton’s Black Gun, Silver Star, a scholarly compilation of court documents, newspaper articles, interviews, and photographs, and Gary Paulsen’s The Legend of Bass Reeves, a 137-page novel for young adults. I had never attempted or even considered writing an historical novel yet found myself surprisingly open to the challenge.
