Produktbeschreibung

Fishing For Love: A Mosaic of Creature-Inspired Tales is about creatures, life, and love on and around Amelia Island, Florida-a love that penetrates its sandy surface, floats through its air, swims in its waters, lingers in its foliage, lives inside its creatures and inhabitants. A love that will always find its way for those who seek it. It consists of thirteen interrelated stories, each told by a fictional island inhabitant and features a different island creature-jellyfish, armadillo, alligator, snake, dog, butterfly, pelican, redfish, manatee, shark, vulture, cardinal, and human. It includes an introduction about Amelia Island and interweaves the life cycle and adventures of a loggerhead sea turtle.

Praise for Fishing For Love

In writing about her beloved speck of land, Linda inserts wild creatures who inhabit and swim off the shore with quirky two-legged creatures who are constantly scheming to enrich themselves at the expense of others. An interesting look at both the island's precious wildlife and the flawed people who live here, leaving the reader to wonder which lifeform will become extinct first. Bryan Brooks is a North Florida freelance writer and author of Sea Wyfe, Gray Wolf and the Buckskin Coat, and Palmettos and Saltwater.

Fishing for Love is a great read for the beach, Tiki Bar, or sun dappled porch. A group of zany local characters navigate both the best and worst of human characteristics while leaving a smile on the reader. Be prepared for equal doses of slapstick, heartache, and heartwarming endings. An added bonus is the cameo peeks into the life cycle of Amelia Island's favorite guest, the loggerhead turtle. Micah Ward of Franklin, Tennessee is the 2012 Roadrunners Club of America Outstanding Club Writer of the Year, a three-time Honorable Mention Award winner for the Lorian Hemingway Short Story Competition, and former judge for Florida Writers Association Royal Palm Awards.

Linda's Fishing for Love takes the reader on a picturesque tour of Amelia Island and its inhabitants. Its short stories make you want to visit the place, soak up the natural beauty, observe the variety of wildlife, and mingle with those blessed to live there. Her characters come to life and, as you read about their adventures, your pace quickens with every line. Carmanita Rollerson is a North Florida freelance writer originally from Charleston, South Carolina. She chairs a writers' critique group.
