Commentary and Excerpt From Evelyn Evolving

Friday Reads: Excerpt from Brutal Season

One of the best parts of early spring walks, besides the warmer weather, is discovering wildflowers nestled amid some tall grass. I hope nobody mows this empty lot while these beauties are still blooming. The days are quickly winding down to April 10th and the release of Brutal Season. As I mentioned last week I’ve
