PublishAmerica Presents The Adventures of Little Buddy and Grizz
by Douglas J. Archambault
Frederick, MD March 6, 2009 -- PublishAmerica is proud to present The Adventures of Little Buddy and Grizz by Douglas J. Archambault.
The Adventures of Little Buddy and Grizz takes a modern-day setting and a writing style that goes back in time before Yogi Bear and Charlotte’s Web to the time of Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. The author brings to life the adventures of a ten-year-old boy who becomes lost in Yellowstone National Park and meets a gigantic grizzly that can talk. Simplistic in nature but full of adventure and humor, the story spans twelve years of the boy’s life.
Douglas’ first book, Two Stepped Out for Him, published in August 2005, brought to life a personal spiritual call that led him and his wife, Joan, on a five-year quest filled with unexpected surprises, trials, and friendships.
Douglas’ second book, The Darkness Before the Dawn, published in 2006, brought to life another personal story that dealt with his unexpected illness with colon cancer, which later uncovered other underlying issues. Included with this book was a book of poems, In My Footsteps/Poems to Inspire. These poems written during his convalescence inspired him to write The Darkness Before the Dawn.
Douglas J. Archambault and his wife Joan reside in Tilton, New Hampshire.
PublishAmerica is the home of 30,000 talented authors. PublishAmerica is a traditional publishing company whose primary goal is to encourage and promote the works of new, previously undiscovered writers.

Why I wrote The Adventures of Little Buddy and Grizz
I wanted to take a modern day setting and a writing style that goes back in time before Yogi Bear and Charlotte’s Web to the time of Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. I did not want illustrations to distract who the characters were. I wanted the reader to be Buddy and experience for themselves, the adventures as they unfolded around them. I wanted to bring to life the adventures of a 10-year old boy who becomes lost in Yellowstone National Park… Continue

Starting another year and already in my so-called Golden Years I can not think of what I would be doing today if I never took up writing as an author and poet using my computer. When I retired I had little skills to work on a computer, I certainly was not an advanced user. I had nev

Golden Years?
Golden Years?
Human nature being what it is we have always been concerned about the years ahead. We would like to know what the future would bring. There is a fear of the future with the sickness or death of a loved one. We look in the mirror and see this face looking back at us, and say wow I am getting old. I am reminded in my later years of an incident when I was a store

Are you ready?
Anyway, I hope to get the house into decent shape before Christmas, when I do my annual meal for the family. There's also that Christmas list to get together. Time is ticking away.
What about you? Are you ready for Christmas? Or do you celebrate another Holiday? If so, are you ready?
Please Welcome Mary Cunningham, Cynthia's Attic Author
I remember a few accounts told by my dad about his adventures as a teenage cave guide at one of the largest caves in the Southern Indiana area, Wyandotte, but I only have to guess at some of the adventures he must've had.
Thanks, Morgan, for having me as a guest!

Can We Talk?
I'm firming up some dates for speaking engagements in 2010. One's tentatively set for March 28, at 1:30 at the Niles Public Library, another probably in mid May at the Schaumburg Township District Library.Also, coming up is a radio interview at WJJQ again on May 7, at 9:35 a.m. before my booksigning May 8 at Cover to Cover Books in Tomahawk, WI.
I've heard that some people are more afraid of public speaking than of dying. Surprisingly, I find it easier each time I do it. As long as I have my cheat sheet with me to glance down at once in a while for security and I like what I'm talking about, I'm okay.
What about you? Do you like to talk or would you rather not?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.
When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
