Cathy T. Colborn's Blog

With the passing of my ma during lockdown, I finally got to escape into my art and revamp the cover for my book. I dedicated the novel to her. It should be scary after all the real life fear and her being the one that did introduce me to horror (see acknowledging info in dedication and at the end of the novel).
I hope you support my press: PFI and my art and my writing. Please leave a review for all the authors you purchase books from. It is really what drives others to take the leap to purchase.
Have a great summer, and I will drop the link to the new covers for Polygon #29: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZW55X7B/...

There is another purple train moving in the Wild West. Madame Lola's Marvelously Amazing Medicine Show wants to know why Big Bess is the most least stationary agoraphobic alive. June may find out more than Lola bargained for...
...to be continued.

Madame and I just wanted to say thanks to the winner and the hundreds of people who entered our Holiday Giveaway (and added our book on their to read list). Please move Madame Lola to your "reading" list soon, because I am working on book two as I type this. I am heading out to New Orleans for inspiration and to see if I can feel Madame and Marie Laveau's spirit telling me where to take the ending of the next book. Wish me well. Happy Holidays! More Giveaways in the new year, but it may be with Madame Lola: Book Two, so happy reading.
Much love and peace,
Cathy T. Colborn
