The childless couple, with big hearts and open arms, felt a kinship to the Cherokee children in the nearby mission. As time and space on their small ranch allowed, they adopted many. But then, it got crowded. The Longarms moved to an abandoned monster of a ranch, and kept adding. But that ranch held several threats. The Grays, who the Cherokee called gray men, were insistent in taking the land over or killing the family off. Even well after the war. The Bluecoats oddly enough, were doing the same. Bandits were the wildcards. However, Robert Longman raised his 'children' Cherokee white and ...

Marshal Cord Loninger, ex-Texas Ranger was lured to such a position in Cactus City, NM. But he soon discovered that the mining company would not hire deputies. So, it was his job to stand the front line and stop the threats. He was good at it. But somehow,...

The Druids ruled in government, religion, and other positions of power until the Romans showed up in what was called Briton. With cruel intent, the Romans spread vicious rumors about sacrifice and butchery until the Druids were a diminished clan in hiding. The Romans thought they ended that reign, pulled out in the fifth century, and maybe so, but they opened the door to evolution. There were, at that time, hardly noticed, hundreds of Sorcerers playing low key and pulling strings from the shadows. If the two should meet... Fodder for #The Storyteller, of course. Enjoy.

Victoria had not planned for this. A nice, comfortable home in the city, plenty of money, a husband who either loved her or loved to show her off.

He seemed a drifter. A no-account man in black in the severe environment of the desert. But that was the way he liked it. He was, after all, a hunter of men, and very, very good at it.

He was stunned to find helpless, religious folks under the threat of evil, and then, even more surprised, when one of them helped him discover his heart. He got it back. Now, he was in a different war for a hell of a lot better reasons… Enjoy- GWT #TheStoryteller

Headaches, heartaches, hope and happiness are the four H's of a good story. All here and more! Enjoy!

It was just a rock. A pretty one, and it intrigued the Incas as a bauble, a trade item. It helped keep the Inca Empire afloat. The Spanish made the first recorded find back in 1600. It was still just a rock. And it subsided into the history ofthe western Amazon Basin for more than 300 years. However, it took a man of vision to see what really layinside that rock. Perhaps, therein, lies a story. Such legends, rumors, and sometimes successes, are the fodder for #TheStoryteller.

Sky Light, pure Comanche, was too strong and too wild for the mission to hold her. In her ill-planned escape, she tangled with a man she would never have even thought about.

This is what our elders are made of: memories. A fascinating tale of love...

This is a tongue in cheek tale of a highly romantic but very illogical song written forty plus years ago, Seven Spanish Angels. Perhaps if we look over the players, one will go with God, and perhaps, one will not. But the song relays the wrong message. Tragic, but the west and Mexico were full of this dichotomy. Enjoy! #TheStoryteller

Thank God for them and their kind, or we could be overrun from ...
