That Darned Tree: And the Serpent and Eve

Ed Gaulden lives with his wife, Vivian, in South Carolina. Creative short-story writing has been one of Ed’s hobbies, having written hundreds of short stories starting from his childhood and continuing to the present. Following retirement from the corporate world, he realized he had the freedom and time to write. He figured that Bully Down, would be another one of his short stories, however it grew to 237 pages, his first novel. Since then he has written To Boldly Love, a 400-page, 1880s romantic tale, and Writing Ruby, a 300-page romantic tale aboard the Titanic.
