After my mother, Leola Mae Looney Hessom retired she spent the greater part of twenty years researching the family history. After her death I went through the weighty material she had accumulated and found a copy of the newspaper article briefly telling Peter's story. Further research turned up more material, some of it is now on the internet.
This novel, The Story of Peter Looney, his year with the Indians, is based on this information, but I have fictionalize part of the story in order to make it an interesting book.
Although I grew up in Virginia, where this story begins and ends, I now live in Aurora, Colorado. I am retired and spend my time exercising and swimming when I'm not writing or doing research for my books. At least two months of the year are spent with my family in California. My B.S. degree is from Virginia Tech, and my B.F.A. if from Western Kentucky University.ver menos
