Each summer for the past ten years I have written a “Summer Series,” that has been published in a local paper.This past year ( 2017) I started “The Curious Life of Marci Bell,” a story about a 12 years old girl who was sold to a family to be the bride of their 17 year old son.The story is set in the 1920’s here in North Florida and is losely based on a true story. The real story had been told to me many years ago by a women who actually had been sold for that very reason when she was 12 years old.When she told me her story and the many turns and bends of her life I became fascinated with what she said and thought at the time, her life had certainly been the makings of an epic novel and at the least extraordinary.I pondered for a long time how to write such a story and last year I decided it would become a summer series.In “Part One,” the young girl, Marci Bell is sold for corn, two pregnant sows, two barrels of syrup and some moonshine whisky to be the wife of a 17 year-old man
