Salt Marsh Publications is an independent publishing house with ten current titles.   We specialize in historical fiction, mystery and children's books.   We also provide editing, ghost writing, re-writing and illustration services and consult on self-publishing.

Our four novels--three historical fiction and a mystery--are designed for late teen and adult readers.  The historical novels, Defending Hillsborough and Reconstructing Hillsborough,  have been selected by the North Carolina Public Schools' Department of Public Instruction as appropriate for secondary school resource reading on the Civil War.

Defending Hillsborough  covers the antebellum period  in Hillsborough, North Carolina, through Sherman's invasion at the end of the American Civil War.   Reconstructing Hillsborough begins with the peace talks and continues through the first years of the Reconstruction period.  Both novels are written from the home front perspective.  The stories are based on real characters and events. 

Lorinda's Legacy, a mystery, is based on an actual murder and the ensuing trial, although the events have been fictionalized.  The story is set in two locations--eastern North Carolina and Gainesville, Florida--and in two time periods--1918 to the present.  Part I tells the tragic events surrounding  the first Lorinda, while Part II tells the story of her granddaughter, the second Lorinda, and her attempt to find the grandmother for whom she was named. 

Florida Shadows  is an historical novel set in Southwest Florida in 1918.  The story follows a young woman who--in an attempt to escape her tragic past--arrives in Fort Ogden, Florida, to start a new life. In her new home, Delia Delaney learns to appreciate Florida's unique flora and fauna--while living through the tragic Spanish Flu epidemic and World War I. The novel follows the completion of the railroad from Arcadia to Boca Grande and the construction of the fashionable Gasparilla Inn in Boca Grande.

The Little Green Monkey Stories are a collection of five picture books for three to eight year olds.  Each tells a story of Little Green Monkey, his family, and friends, and each one teaches a childhood lesson.

Alone, a poetry collection, contains poems and photos on a range of subjects.

In addition to the ten publications, Salt Marsh Publications has also provided edits and rewrites on three children's books, readied a young-adult novel for publication, and compiled a church history publication.
