The Door In the Carnegie Library by VC Williams
Seventeen-year-old Julie believes she’s failed at everything in her 1967 world of miniskirts and popularity. Unnoticed at school, even her parents have little time for the shy girl. While taking shelter in the town library during a rainstorm, a friendly Native American spirit “pushes” her back in time. Finding herself in the Elks Opera House, an attractive teenage stagehand, Ren, reveals she’s landed in 1907. Taken in by a strangely familiar woman and her deputy sheriff husband, the frightened girl learns that if she wants to get home, she must step out of her comfort zone. Ren and a new friend at school help her take those first steps. But when the Apache Kid hears about the Yavape′ Apache magic, Julie faces her biggest challenge. Survival. Without the magic of bravery, trust, and inner knowledge, she may never get home again.

Author Bio:
Despite a background in technical writing, I love writing fiction about strong women. I’m descended from strong Pioneer Women who worked alongside their fathers, brothers, or husbands on farms in Texas and Arizona, killing rattlesnakes as easily as baking a pie. Those ancestors and other strong women I’ve encountered have stories to tell, and I love sharing them with you.
I write historical fiction, but also love mystery and a little magic. I’ve received excellent reviews from Kirkus, the Historical Fiction Co., BookLife, and others.. I’ve been a finalist in the 2023 American Writing Awards and received Honorable Mention from the Paris Book Festival and other awards.
I am a second-generation Arizonan and a history enthusiast. I am a member of the Historical Novel Society, the Arizona Authors Association, and the Arizona Territorial Society.
