We co-authors, GaGa Gabardi & Judilee Butler, stumbled into our collaboration beginning with a short story project Mysteries From the Museum for the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum in Leadville, Colorado. From there, we decided why not take the next step and develop characters, storyline, and a setting all within the context of our joint sense of humor? Using technology to jump the hurdles of our distant locations—2,000 miles between our homes—we were able to develop our character, Phoebe Korneal (pronounced Cor-nell) and grow a framework around a small mountain town, using Colorado history for background. As we were putting the finishing touches on our story, the Pandemic hit! Lucky for us, it was time for editing and the safety measure of confinement became a triple opportunity to focus, rewrite, and laugh together. We hope that you can sit back and enjoy the ride that The Last Hurrah is intended to be and, at the finish, be wanting to read our next adventure! Meantime, we invite you to share questions, comments, and extraneous outbursts at our website BnGbooks.com and by email at PhoebeKorneal@gmail.com. GAGA GABARDI - Graduating from college, my one thought was to leave Minnesota and live where the weather is phenomenal, but I never made it to southern California! I retired from a career in telecom with a Master's in Project Management, another in Business, and an Advanced Project Degree from Stanford (thank you, corporate world). Completing my private pilot license, I needed money for ‘av’ fuel . . . back to work—this time consulting, teaching, course development, a welcome change alongside the birth of my first grandson who named me GaGa. Thank you, B. Writing with Judilee was a way I could add levity within the confines of the pandemic, reach out to others to share our mutual experiences, and fine-tune the art of storytelling. Hubby and I live in the Colorado mountains. It's an easy pace for us with enough space to enjoy camping, fishing, and riding the rough mountain trails. I can't make up these experiences! I hope you enjoy The Last Hurrah, get a chuckle here and there, learn a bit regarding Colorado history, and at the end, wonder what happens next. JUDILEE BUTLER - Born and raised in New York, I attended the State University of New York at Brockport and taught Kindergarten for several years. Settling in North Carolina, I completed a Master's Degree in Special Education. At that point, the corporate world was calling and I began my career with IBM. Twenty years later, with the family safely launched into life, my husband and I retired to the central mountains of Colorado. We enjoy a yearly trek to Florida and other parts of the East coast. Writing with the CC Writers Exchange opened a whole new world for me. GaGa and I collaborated to write a mystery short story as a fundraiser for the Leadville Mining Museum. We enjoyed creating that so much, we decided to try a light mystery series. Oresville is a small mining town in the high mountains of Colorado. Lots of history, characters, and puzzles for our gal, Phoebe, to solve. The rest is history, as the saying goes. I hope you enjoy our stories as much as we enjoy writing them.
