2011-07-30 Pancake Hollow Primer by Laurence Carr

My friend Larry Carr just published a novel called Pancake Hollow Primer: a Hudson Valley Story. Larry is a prolific writer, dramatist and teacher. Bill and I love to visit Larry and his wife Kay in October each year on Pancake Hollow Road in Highland, New York. The area is very picturesque and we enjoy apple picking down the road at Wilklow Orchards. On our last visit, I took a few pictures around their wonderful home. Larry asked me to specifically take some photographs of an old red barn on their property. To my surprise, he asked if he could use one of the photos on the cover of his novel, to which I said yes. He has credited me on the back cover of the book for the cover photo. I love the way he wrapped the picture around the cover of the book. When I last saw him a week ago, he told me that the book is selling very well in the Hudson Valley and that it is in its third printing. The book was published at Codhill Press for any one interested. I am totally thrilled that one of my photographs is now in print on the cover of his book.
