Guest Post: Myra McEntire (Author of Hourglass)

Please welcome Myra McEntire as she shares with readers about the local legends from the town Ivy Springs is based on.

Myra McEntire knows the words to every R and B hit of the last decade, but since she lives in the country music capital of America where her lyrical talents go sadly unappreciated, she chose to channel her mad word skills into creating sultry Southern timeslip novels. 

But if you catch her at a signing, she can probably be convinced to rap with you anyway.

HOURGLASS is her first novel. It will be released June 14, 2011!

Ivy Springs is based on Franklin, Tennessee. It is rich in Civil War history and Victorian architecture.

Franklin is very walkable, much like Ivy Springs.

Windows like these play very prominently into the first chapter of HOURGLASS...

Puckett's Grocery is a landmark business, and I chose to model Murphy's Law Coffee after it!

I can just see Lily and Em at one of these cafe tables!

Here's another great site about Franklin:
