My new book is born. <em>The Farm at the East Cove Hotel<\/em> is now available as a handsome paperback. Copies may be ordered from your favorite actual bookstores and found at your favorite online bookselling sites. I will append a few viable links at the end of this announcement. In a few weeks various e-book editions will become available, and shortly thereafter the scintillating audio edition starring Yours Truly will debut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For regular readers of my blog, the first few chapters of <em>The Farm at the East Cove Hotel<\/em> may ring some bells because earlier iterations of these chapters appeared on my blog a year or so ago as freestanding short stories. However, when the characters from one story began to bump into characters from another story, I realized a novel was being birthed and so took the project offline and allowed the tale to unfold with no thought of showing the opus to anyone until the story was done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones-930x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7034\" style=\"width:304px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones-930x1024.jpg 930w, https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones-273x300.jpg 273w, https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones-768x845.jpg 768w, https:\/\/underthetablebooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Tobers-Stones.jpg 1163w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the novel about?
