About the Book

It's 1974 in Boxford, Maryland. Two Mormon families cling together -- when they can stand each other Marc Feldsted, graduating senior, vows to throw off poverty like a holey tennis shoe. Shelly Galvin, who flirts as easily as she tears open a candy wrapper, makes eyes at the wrong stranger. And Latham Runyon, history professor, thinks he's the next stake president. If you like Mormon stories populated with characters you're sure you've met, you'll love the unvarnished ambitions and stumbles of the Runyons and the Feldsteds in The Boxford Stories. Buy today and get to know the Mormons of Boxford!
About the Author: Kristen Carson was born in Idaho, the caboose baby in a family of six girls. She studied at Brigham Young University. Hearing tales of how green the grass was elsewhere, she pledged to move east of the 100th Meridian. Even though she's never lived in the #1 place on her list (Lexington, Kentucky--have you seen those beautiful bluegrass hills?!), she enjoyed her years in Texas, Illinois and Pennsylvania. She currently lives in Indiana. Kristen's stories and articles have appeared in The Indianapolis Star, Chicago Parent, Indianapolis Monthly, Dialogue: a Journal of Mormon Thought and Irreantum. She and her husband are the parents of four adult children. She loves her two cats for their affection, their paranoia and their sense of entitlement. She takes long walks wherever she goes, because she thinks the best way to see the world is at 3 miles an hour. She loves cooking. All the chopping, stirring and inhaling make for a perfect capstone to her day. Kristen is also an avid reader. No doubt she won't live long enough to finish all the books on her list. Her favorite authors are Herman Wouk, Diana Gabaldon and Tom Wolfe. Check out her blog at kristencarsonauthor.com
