Good Read
Coen's latest non-fiction (she was a romance writer in her earlier career) book on Lafayette, LA and the Acadiana area paranormal scene is truly a wonderful and interesting book. Not only will you find ghost stories but very well researched historical facts to back up the stories. An enjoyable read.
Hi Chere Coen,
I'll remember you always as giving me my first news article. I've moved away from the doll books after the fifth and final book. I've moved on to fiction/drama/paranormal romance. I love ghost stories and paranormal events.
Good to see you in the den. :) Your book sound like a great read.

Neil Armstrong played the Dissolution of America Card After His Return From Space-- the Military Dishonor Card. He had a very messy DIVORCE after a military Platoon Experience for his wife and family.
