Great news Silver Threads is now available on Amazon!

​Over the next few weeks, Chapter-A-Day posts will feature all the background information going into writing Book One in the Silver Threads Series, appropriately titled Road Trip. You, my dear readers, will have a hand in writing the book!
 
Here are some of the things we need:
Names of Characters – Main male and female characters (empty nesters), one adult son, one adult daughter, adult son’s college roommates (three guys), adult daughter’s boyfriend, best friend who lives in Vegas and her husband (also empty nesters), brother-in-law of main male character, pre-teen son and daughter of brother-in-law.
 
Places of Interest and Fun Things to Do – Along the planned route, fun places for them to stop, either touristy, historical, sentimental, haunted house, old friend from high school, cool little city that they simply must drive an hour out of their way to go see, etc.
 
Happy Things that Happen – If you have any suggestions of things you’d like me to include in the story, let me know.
 
Tragic Things that Happen – If you have any suggestions of things you’d like me to include in the story, let me know.
 
Hilarious Things that Happen – If you have any suggestions of things you’d like me to include in the story, let me know.
 
If you contribute to the story in any way, your name will be featured in the acknowledgements section of the book! Heck, I might even name a character after you.
 
Here’s the basic itinerary for their car trip. If you’ve been to any of these places or along the route, or have suggestions or ideas, let me know!

Talk about what they want in life and what they wish could be done differently. They need to get to know each other again so sightseeing will be good. Look for planes that would be short but fun stops along the way.
