Laughter, they say, is the best medicine. So, wouldn’t be even better when something makes you snort?
I write all sorts of stories. I’ve been told that I do some genre mash-ups. However, there’s one thing you can count on with my stories — whimsy. In the universe of Atonement, Tennessee, maybe in any of my story-verses, the most whimsical volume is The Glowing Pigs — Snort Stories of Atonement, Tennessee.
It’s been hard for me to keep my spirits up during this pandemic. I know I’m certainly not the only one. Everybody could use a little “snort.” So, this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday only, the Kindle version of this collection of short stories is free!
Dyanna Wyndesong gave the collection this wonderful review. It made spirits soar for Deme and Honeybell — and especially me!
Fun and funny. Glowing pigs visit the little town of Atonement, Tennessee bringing their own brand of quirky magic to a town already steeped in magic. This wonderful little book give you a glimpse of the magic that Deme and Honeybell create and a quick peek at some of the residents of Atonement. It is a quick entertaining read guaranteed to bring a smile a snort and even giggle.
Here’s an Amazon universal link (all countries) for the Kindle version of this collection of “snorts” rxe.me/LTBDNH
Information about the rest of the Atonement, TN universe is below. Have a snortin’ good rest of the week. Be well, be happy. Hugs on the wing!

These pigs are so sweet. I have a friend in SL who awards people snerks if they make her laugh hard enough that she metaphorically snorts milk up and out her nose. She told me on Friday that she had awarded more snerks to me than anyone else. I claim to have snerkability as a talent. Snerk is an amazingly adaptable word. I think that snerks and snorts are closely related.

Tee-hee! That’s too funny, Pat. I can imagine Honeybell having a cousin that snerked. Or Deme doing something that caused Ralda Lawton to “snerk.” Grunt-snuffle-snort hugs.

You’re so sweet, Teagan. I’m having a hard time with this too. It’s scary and so terribly tragic. Blogging has been hard. I don’t feel like myself and I don’t want to spread around the gloom. This post made me smile though. Thanks for the snort! ❤ <3.

Teagan, thanks for the free Kindle of your snortin’ book!
I clicked the link, signed in but I couldn’t seem to get it delivered unless I signed up for Unlimited, for a free trial.
This is part of what I hate about Amazon. I have been boycotting them for 2 years (after spending mucho $$ on their platform)
You offer it for free, but they add a caveat.
I’d love to read it.
Just want you to know, I tried!
You are a wonderful writer.
