One Step Closer to the Shelves

If You Walk Long Enough is one step closer to being published and placed on bookstore and library shelves. One step closer to being available for personal purchase and gift giving. The gift part is timely with the holidays just around the corner. Adults that lived through the Vietnam War, millennials that never knew the conflict, the LGBTQ community, Nam vets, and fans of the historical narrative will enjoy this novel set against the backdrop of two green, tangled places.

During the summer of 1970, two Marines return to South Carolina and the people they left behind, face changes exploding across the country, and cope with rebuilding home.
