Scott,
I am from Beardstown. My son, Doug Smith, was tragically injured during a hunting accident and everyone feels that it would make into a wonderful book. Can you suggest any authors that we can send the magazine, newspaper and etc., to proofread to see the prospects of a book and./or a movie???
Thanks
P.S. Your Dad is so proud of my son for proceeding into the administrative role of schooling as he is Principal of Mt. Olive Elementary School in Mt. Olive.
