Salt Marsh Publications has published five historical novels, a mystery, five children's books, and a book of poetry.  The two Hillsborough novels are based on the events surrounding a real family during the American Civil War.  Both Defending Hillsborough and Reconstructing Hillsborough have been accepted by the North Carolina Public Schools' State Board of Education as suitable for high school students in their study of the Civil War.  The third and fourth historical novels, Florida Shadows and Florida Secrets, involve the construction of the railroad in Southwest Florida--from Arcadia to Boca Grande--describe the flora and fauna of the area, and bring in Florida's history in the Seminole Indian wars. The third novel of the trilogy, Florida Sunset, is being released in August, 2011.  This novel moves all of the characters from the first two books to the new town of Venice in 1925 and relates its historical beginning.  

The mystery, Lorinda's Legacy, is based on an actual murder in 1909 and the ensuing trial. 

The five-book set of illustrated children's books is called The Little Green Monkey Stories.  These books are suitable for pre-school through approximately third grade.

Alone, the poetry book, is a collection of poems, which is illustrated with the author's own photographs.
