UnScripted - An Author's Answered Prayer

Mary Brotherton and Linda Humphrey met in 2009, when MAry was the ditor at a Florida niche publication and Linda joined as a journalist.  In 2019, Linda was diagnosed with cancer and learned much about her radiation oncologist during her many treatments.  One of the things she learned was that Dr. Strike was a paraglieder with a group of other Tennessee adventure lovers.  Linda wrote nearly a dozen articles about the Moonshine Fliers over several years, including one for bUneke magazine, which is when Mary first learned about the group. Linda was later inspired to write a children's book called "Corfield Fliers of East Tennessee," after waking from a dream about reading the book to her own grandchildren and immediatley started writing.  She had all but given up hope of publishing her children's book, because, despite spending hhundreds of dollars, over the course of several years on a illustrator, she could not get all the images she needed for her book.  As often happens, the illustrator simply stopped working on the project. After showing the galleys of her own children's book, "My Angel Book," Mary offered to illustrate Linda's book when available. Linda responded that Mary was an answer to a prayer.   "Confield Fliers of East Tennessee" is expected to be published by bUneke in the Fall of 2023
