World War II + Time Machine = Family Mayhem
Young Delyla Thomas has been assigned a project about her ancestors during Spring Break. She is forced to stay with her Aunt Claire, while the rest of her family goes to the beach. Aunt Claire is her father’s sister, who lives in a green house with a purple roof. Delyla thinks of Aunt Claire as a wild, whacky aunt. That is, until she finds out Aunt Claire invented the world’s first time machine, and she would like Delyla’s help to use it. Delyla agrees and travels back in time, where she meets her ancestors, Diana and Mary Anne. Diana is a German who is fierce, defiant, and strong willed. Mary Anne is a calm girl from France who can be a pain sometimes and is easily frustrated. Diana’s father leaves to join the Nazi army and bad blood forms between he and Diana, who dislikes everything the Nazis stand for. This awkward anger causes Diana and Delyla to run away to France, where they meet Mary Anne and her mother, who agree to take them in. Mary Anne is upset that Diana and Delyla are staying in her house; and one night, Diana decides to run away once again, but Delyla cleverly devises a plan to get Mary Anne to follow them. The two girls are brought together by Delyla and learn a secret that is too unbelievable to be true. As Mary Anne and Diana begin to bond, World War II begins its toll, and one won’t leave alive!

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
