Hello, everyone
I met a great group of kids at Steward Elementary last Friday!
My nephew, Sam, is a student there.
Actually, this is his last year there!
It came to me that my address on this blog is wrong!
My physical address is:
Ellen Newton Driscoll
916 Rosebud Drive

Thanks everyone!

This post is for parents and maybe some older kids.
I've written another book of an entirely different genre' titled, HAUNTED LIES, NOTES FROM OF FORMER GHOST HUNTER.
This book is about my (and my familys) experience with the paranormal and Parker County Paranormal, the investigative group I began. As a Christian, I thought I was doing the right thing.
Nearly two years ago, the Lord told me in no uncertain terms to get out of paranormal investigating. I did and He opened my eyes to many of the lies we are buying in this "paranormal gone crazy" world.
Tate publishing has taken on the task of helping spread the word of how what we see on TV and read in books may indeed be real but much more dangerous than we realize.
Look for HAUNTED LIES, NOTES FROM A FORMER GHOST HUNTER in the fall of 2013.
THE CROWN OF CANDLEWOOD promises to be the best Candlewood adventure yet! It's also a much longer piece of the story so keep reading!
Lots of questions will be answered in this book including, Will Prince Kevin marry Princess Leanna?
Who is the REAL enemy of Candlewood?
Is everyone who he or she seems to be?
And who will REALLY be the next King of Candlewood?
Even I don't know all the answers yet but we're nearly there.
Keep an eye out in the fall of 2013 for THE CROWN OF CANDLEWOOD and as always, let me know what you think.
"For God, King and Candlewood!"

Candlewood is back!
We'll be in Aledo on Friday, Feb 1, 2013 at my nephew Sam's school.
As most of you know, Samuel is the youngest of the Candlewood siblings and is now having adventures of his own! (And maybe a dragon of his own?)
We'll be at Steward Elementary at 8:30 this Friday morning to read a bit and talk about where the story of Candlewood is going!

The Legend of the Dragon Sword
Hello, everyone!
Candlewood, The Legend of the Dragon Sword is doing very well. Most of my personal sales are for the entire trilogy, which surprises and delights me.
Book four, The Crown of Candlewood, is about half written. The story took an unexpected turn I think Candlewood readers will enjoy so stay posted right here!
The Dragons of Candlewood will soon be offered on "kindle" and books two and three will soon follow.
We'll be on the radio in Feb and at The Bookcase in Weatherford probably that same day. (I'll verify the dates and post.)
Books and Authors and All that Jazz is our favorite event and we'll be there, rain or shine. Haven't received the dates for that event yet but I will let you know.
Look at the new photos on this site of two of my favorite fans getting book three for Christmas. I'm going to put this photo on my wall!
Until later,
"For God, King and Candlewood!"

After the book show
Well, were had a blast at the North Texas Book and Paper show!
We (fellow author and Mom, Barbara Newton) met many new friends and even shared cookies with customers and authors alike.
If you missed it, plan on coming next year.
Next Candlewood goes to Plantersville to the Renasciance Festival. For the first time, my books are going without me! Meet Shelly Lee, your bookseller and guess what? She WILL have book three, Candlewood: The Legend of the Dragon Sword. She may see the first book before me!
Meanwhile stay in touch here and I'll be sure you know when book three is officially released. It's been a long road but we're almost there.
Stay well, stay safe and remember, "For God, King and Candlewood!"

Joe is a funny, wacky host. If you attend, stop by and say "hello" for me. Oh! And buy a book or two. Joe and Carrie have back issues of Renasciance Magazine, too, and for much less than anywhere else.

Come and see us and take advantage of all the wonderful books you'll see.
