A Word to my Lovely Readers

As an author, I appreciate every single one of my readers. Indie book authors are responsible for all their own marketing, promotion, book production, etc. in addition to the writing. The publishing world has changed since I started writing back in the early '80s. Reader reviews are more important than ever.

So next time you finish a story or book you love, please consider sharing it on Facebook or Twitter or leaving a review on Amazon, Smashwords, B&N or the other retail sites. Authors really appreciate that, and it makes it possible for us to offer the occasional free and lower-priced book. Thank you so much! bobbi c.

Reader Review of Aunt Jewel and the Purloined Pork Loin

"The real star of this clever short story is the town of Nameless, Texas (population 2,354,) where the people and goings on are about as quirky as you'll find. Bank robberies, a Thanksgiving celebration and a quest for a pork loin roast drive the story, but the characters are who you will remember." A.M.

Bobbi A. Chukran, Author
Bobbi is an author of mysterious stories and plays. She's a spinner of tales, dreamer, seeker of truth, herder of cats and gardener who lives in a small town in central Texas. Ms. Chukran has been writing stories since she was very young. She's a native Texan who comes from a long line of Southern eccentrics of Cherokee, Sioux, Welsh and Irish origin--all of whom told stories of one kind or another. More than anything, that explains a lot about her.

Four Star Reader Review

Charming Story of a Quirky Town July 9, 2013
By amacrae
Amazon Verified Purchase

"Bobbi Chukran's tales of the wonderfully goofy residents of the tiny town of Nameless, Texas creep up on you by surprise. The humor ranges from insightful observations on the follies of our kind, to laugh out loud comedy."
