About the Author

Carl R. Brush

Once upon a time . . . (as all the best stories begin) I taught school (English and Drama). Now I write, travel, direct community theater plays, and work as a Child Care Technician (all right, babysitter) for my grandkids.

I’ve had two musical dramas (authored book and lyrics, not the music) produced non-professionally.

See the page to the right for a look at my current and coming publications--A total of four historical novels. I've had a number of short fiction works published in various e-zines and print mags, but my main current project has evolved into writing historical novels.

With the publication of BONITA by the good people at Solstice publishing, I've completed a trilogy set in and around San Francisco and the high Sierra in time periods ranging from the 1840's to 1910, The chronological second of the three, The Second Vendetta, as you can see to the left, has been released in both e-book and paperback by Solstice publishing.

Coming soon is THE YELLOW ROSE of Texas, wherein I leave California, join with my late co-author, Bob Stewart, and plunge into the drama of the 1836 Texas Revolution. Sam Houston and the real original Yellow Rose, Emily West, get together in an imagined triumphal relationship to defeat the Dictator Santa Anna and establish the Texas Republic. See Coming Attractions page for excerpts.

Finally, there's the BONITA sequel. In progress, also available at Coming Attractions.

I've had a great time creating all these tales and characters. I hope you have a wonderful time exploring them.
