Mobile, Alabama has its stories. The azaleas know better. And if you know the Azaleas you know the stories are true. 🌸
My new short story, Secrets of the Azalea City: Not All Are Documented in Ink, is now available on Kindle and Paperback!
Meet Tutta LaTour, a former society columnist who knows the difference between what happened and what made the newspaper. When an earnest historian uncovers a photograph from Mardi Gras sixty years ago, a stolen crown and a dignified man’s unfortunate encounter with an azalea bush threaten to become everybody’s business.
And:
Growing up in Mobile, Alabama, gave me plenty of inspiration for this warm, mischievous story about friendship, gossip, and knowing when to keep your mouth shut. I was conceived under an azalea bush, born under an azalea bush, and played under one, too.
—CeCe Redmond
The azaleas get the last laugh. I hope you’ll join them.
