TASSIE'S JOURNEY

Jennifer Callson grew up in West Texas enjoying nature with its wide sweeps of country.  Her great love for reading planted an early desire to someday be a writer.

Jennifer listened with untiring attention to Grandma Callson’s tales of youth, especially when she talked about the long wagon move from Missouri to almost the border of Mexico in the 1860’s.  The one part of this story Jennifer liked to hear over and over was of Tassie, who came along and was about the same age as Grandma (Stanton) Callson.

The story, after several generations became almost a family myth until it reached Jennifer who gave it new life and reality.

Tassie Johnson, a pretty little mulatto, was forced to live with the Stanton family at the tender age of six.  This strange arrangement brought strong repercussions that would later, much later, furnish infinite material for Jennifer’s first try at writing family history that sent her at the age of seventeen on her way as a budding author.  Prying into family records revealed the existence of a Trust Fund for Tassie Johnson who had long ago vanished from the Stanton household.

Jennifer grew with her talent that would one day bridge this long past with the present from unexpected events to shape unusual surprises.

To keep the surprises in place, I leave you to read TASSIE’S JOURNEY.
