  • Affrilachian Tales: Folktales from the African-American Appalachian Tradition www.parkhurstbrothers.com You can also find Affrilachian Tales on Amazon.com! And my second Parkhurst Brothers publication, Beyond the Briar Patch, is available, too! Woo-hoo, y'all!
  • Both books won awards! Affrilachian Tales received two awards, the 2013 Anne Izard Storytellers' Choice Award, and a 2013 Storytelling World Resource Award. Beyond the Briar Patch has also received the 2015 Anne Izard Storytellers' Choice Award. Wow! I am feelin' good about all of that! Thank you to all who believe in what I do, and support my work.
  • Book #3 from Parkhurst Brothers! Look for HOT WIND, BOILING RAIN: SCARY STORIES FOR STRONG HEARTS. Enjoy the stories. Try the writing exercises in the back of the book. Remember, this is an award-winning one that is not for the kiddies, or the faint of heart!
