    In the days following the shoot out at the O.K. Corral tensions had been high in Tombstone, Arizona. Adding to the tension was the Stranger riding into town. Who was this rider from out of the desert? Who or what was he after and what was the secret behind those strange glowing eyes?

    Author

    Robert C. Mason

    Robert has always had an active imagination, which he usually expressed in drawings and doodles, but it wasn't until 2007 that he actually started putting pen to paper (letters to laptop really). Robert started out writing short stories with little life messages in them. He finished his first full length novel, The Bully Affect, in 2008, the focus of which was also a life lesson. Bullying. A writing contest was the inspiration for his novella, The Tombstone Stranger. Written in less then two weeks and told from the prespective of a young boy growing up in the wild west the narration proved quite challenging. "To talk with a drawl or accent is one thing, but to write that way was a lot harder then I thought it would be, but I think that is part of the charm of the story," Robert says. His next novel, Zoey Zimmerman and the Zombie Pigeon, was nearly two years in the making. This tale of a young girl that can talk to animals also has a fundamental life lesson at the heart, friendship. "I really enjoy writing stories for young readers. If you can keep their interest with a good story and sneak in some important messages all the better." Robert resides in Phoenix, Arizona with his wife Jennifer and daughter Emma.

      The sound of water coursing over rocks filled my ears. The creek banks reached out with lush green vegetation as if to grab and hold me, and the warm June air was sweet with the smell of honeysuckle. The creek was small. Four good jumps and I could g
