Download or read book Ghost Stories of Old Texas written by Zinita Parsons Fowler and published by Eakin Press. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Texas is a land of legends and folktales. Some of them are based on characters like Pecos Bill, Bigfoot Wallace, and Davy Crockett - loud, outgoing, bigger-than-life "daytime" kinds of people. Others concern themselves with mysterious, shadowy things: giant, footless birds, river spirits, and phantom lights. These ghost stories are told in whispers. Perhaps to make children behave or adults change their way of living and have become interwoven with the real-life historical happenings and characters of Texas to the point of doubt in some instances as to what is real and what is the child of overactive imaginations. As is the case with all folklore, they are told in many different versions. These have be-come a part of the heritage of Texas folklore.

Download or read book Where We Are Now written by Carolyn Osborn and published by Wings Press. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of stories that Carolyn Osborn has developed over two decades, Where We Are Now is about a single family, the Moores. Marianne is the main narrator of these stories about her mother's family. In the first tale, "The Greats," her relatives are so distant Marianne can only give brief glimpses of the eccentric Moores. "The Grands," an O. Henry Prize–winning story, first introduced readers to many of the characters who inhabit Where We Are Now. By knowing the Moores, we begin to know Marianne, who tries to understand them. Curious as she is, she must continually accept the mystery of reality. Aware of the need for family mythology, she orders her world as best she can with what she is given by reacting, reflecting, inventing, and enlarging on the fragments. Other narrators reveal omissions Marianne can never know. Marianne's life and the lives of the Moores have a definitively southern flavor; they mirror fading 19th-century morality, an acceptance of eccentricity, the habit of storytelling, a strong consciousness of place, and the influence as well as the particularity of family. These stories are an attempt to show the failures and triumphs of love, the necessity of forgiveness, and the usefulness of different sorts of families.

Download or read book Texas Short Stories written by Billy Bob Hill and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first edition contains Judy Alter's "Sue Ellen Learns to Dance," the 1998 recipient of first-place short story awards from both the National Cowboy Hall of Fame & the Western Writers of America. In addition, Texas Short Stories contains Joyce Gibson Roach's "In Broad Daylight," also a finalist in that year's Spur competition. This popular anthology, edited by B. B. Hill of Dallas, captures the diverse Texas experience. Columnist Judyth Rigler comments on the anthology's editor: Billy Bob Hill of Dallas, a quiet man who looks nothing like the image of the rough & tough, good old boy called up by his name, has been working for many years to showcase the talents of Texas writers adept at the short-story form." And novelist Sarah Bird says of Hill's Texas Short Stories: "At a time when lots of Lone Star writers are banking on crime novels & film scripts, Texas short story writers continue to patrol the smaller venues, sending back microcosmic reports from off-ramp towns, keeping the faith. Billy Bob Hill's anthology contains a wealth of Texas tales." To order contact: Browder Springs Books, P.O. Box 823521, Dallas, TX 75382, phone: (214) 368-4360. Fax: 214-739-9149.
