I met Author Dennis Higgins a couple of years ago online at one of the popular social media sites. We soon found out we had a few things in common besides writing. Both our sisters passed too soon, and we immediately adopted one another as virtual siblings.
Some years before this I met another Author, Launa McNeilly, we adopted one another as sisters. I am extremely grateful that I have gained such valuable relationships along my writing journey.
There are other friends that I have met online, that it seems as if we have known each other for years–they know who they are.
Now, more about this great Time-Travel writer….
Dennis Higgins is a distant relative of Davy Crockett, is a world traveler and native of Chicago, Illinois. He says that he has always possessed a romance with things of the past that are gone but not forgotten. He now lives in the suburbs with his lovely wife, one dog and a couple of birds.
Among his influences are: Richard Matheson, Jack Finney, Dean Koontz, Joan Wester Anderson, Peter S. Beagle and Audrey Neffenegger.
Dennis Higgins is the author of The Time Pilgrims books and they are part of a series for the YA and adult reading audience.
1.) Katya and Cyrus (Time Pilgrims Book 1)
2.) Almost Yesterday (Time Pilgrims Book 2)
3.) Tomorrow’s Borrowed Trouble
4. Parallel Roads (Lost on Route 66)
He is also author of Steampunk Alice – a Novella. The cover is illustrated by me (Virginia Wright). I had never read a Time-Travel book before Steampunk Alice. Oh, my gosh–I love it! It held my attention from page one!
The cover that I illustrated for Dennis Higgins book, Steampunk Alice, just made finals at Authorsdb.com’s 2014 Cover Contest. Excited! Excited, both for the author, Dennis Higgins, and for myself as an illustrator of the cover.
The cover contest voting will begin on Sunday, December 14, 2014 until December 21, 2014 PST. At the Authorsdb.com web site. Click on Cover Contest.
Dennis’s latest release is: Tomorrow’s Borrowed Trouble, this author certainly has been cranking out book after book the last year and two. He is a super inspiration to me as a writer.
Wishing you all the best on your latest release. Many happy sales!!
Tomorrow’s Borrowed Trouble
