A Dying Flame (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781494389505)

J.D. Harris is a native of North Carolina. After spending much of his working life writing marketing materials and as a fundraising executive for colleges and universities in the state, he decided to put his degree in creative writing from Western Carolina University to use writing fiction centered in the state he loves and calls home. A history buff, Harris combines creative descriptive prowess with actual historical facts to bring characters to life. Growing up in the hometown of Thomas Wolfe and where O'Henry created many of his best works, Harris has been inspired by the Asheville, NC attraction to writers, poets, artists and storytellers.
