Former King City Writer to Sign Books Saturday

April Toler writes today in the Mount Vernon Register-News about Ellen Newton Driscoll's newest book, "The Dragons of Candlewood".

MT. VERNON — Former resident Ellen Newton Driscoll enjoys traveling from her Texas home to the King City to visit family and this weekend, during a trip to spend time with her great-aunt, Driscoll will be doing more than chatting with the family; she will be signing copies of her first book.

“The Dragons of Candlewood,” is the first of a series of books Driscoll is writing and she will be signing copies of her first novel Saturday at B Dalton book store in the Time Square Mall. The books are being published by Wordwright International.

The novel centers around the kingdom of Candlewood and the dragons the people of Candlewood raise to protect their kingdom and themselves. Driscoll said the dragons each have distinct personalities just like the five royal children who inhabit Candlewood.

The event is Saturday, but no time is given.
