DRAGONFLY BOOKS AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT NEIL DOUGLAS NEWTON

|
Neil Douglas Newton published his first book, “The Railroad” in 2012. The book is rooted in the author’s personal experience during 9/11 when he was living and working in NYC. Neil was in the subway while the towers fell and what his protagonist “Mike Dobbs” experiences at the beginning of the book are autobiographical. However, this book isn’t about 9/11, it’s about a man who survives the most terrifying day of his life, and how his life is forever changed by it. The story of a man suffering from PTSD, alcoholism who finds himself embroiled in a mystery while falling in love for the first time in his life.
This book was followed by “The Chaconne” a murder mystery and ghost story. Mr. Newton is hard at work at two new books, both completely different from his first. Dragonfly Books is hoping one or both will be ready to publish within the next few months. Neil Douglas Newton lives in Knoxville, TN with his wife, author Elizabeth Horton-Newton. Together they are known as the “Crazy Writer Couple” and are currently working on a book of short stories which will hopefully be released sometime this year. The Crazy Writer Couple Elizabeth Horton-Newton, one half of the Crazy Writer Couple, is also known as The Seductress of Suspense. Now Neil Douglas Newton, the other half of the Crazy Writer Couple, wants a title of his own! Neil was a little upset to find that his wife had a brand new banner to display at book signings and he wants one of his own, who could blame him? Help Neil find a good title and we’ll order his banner! If you choose the winning title, you will receive an autographed copy of The Railroad and Neil’s sincere thanks!
