The Old Scrapbook

The Old Scrapbook is real. The characters within its pages were real as well. This story is an attempt to fill in the blanks of their actual relationship. Bet and Ray met, fell in love, and got engaged until a war separated them, World War II.Seventy years later, the old scrapbook was found, and the mysteries involved rediscovered.I became obsessed with the scrapbook and what could have become of the young woman, Bet, who created it. I felt that woman was somehow guiding me as I wrote the story. That's how I felt from the beginning; like I was led to that war-time scrapbook by an unseeing hand that I could feel something from its pages. How Bet's loving nature and fun personality transcended the years, coming out of the words and pictures from those black pages. It made this the most unique book I had ever had the pleasure of writing.
