THE OWL LADY PRESENTS GUEST AUTHOR: DENNIS HIGGINS

First off, thanks for having me, Viv. You are my favorite owl lady.

dennis higginsMy usual genre is fun, light hearted, time-travel, such as can be found in my Time Pilgrim series. But today I would like to talk about my latest venture. Of all the books I have written, none are as important to me as Pennies From Across the Veil. Its influence comes from every person I ever knew, loved and who happened to die. This is especially true when my own mother passed away in June of 2014. Things started happening immediately after her death—none of which were scary because I knew they could only have come from her. It made me recall when my dear sister died years before, and the things that happened at that time. In fact, with each and every person I ever knew who passed from this world to the next, came signs, dreams, and occurrences, especially right afterwards. Then I discovered, it happened to other people as well. Sometime the similarity of the occurrences was striking. There were often common themes, such as butterflies, feathers late night phone calls and yes, pennies.

I was deeply moved to take all these experiences and combine them into one romantic love story about death. This is not a ghost story, but a story of love, passion and survival.
