Praise for DL Larson’s historical family saga … ‘A story so full of compassion and purpose it will grab your heart and not let go…An outstanding read. Shirley Johnson, Midwest Book review of Memories Trail ‘I laughed, I cried, I hated, I loved in this real-life novel where love is worth salvaging no matter what…’ Ashley Denis, Front Street Review of Promises To Keep 2008 Reader’s Choice Award ‘Life is precious, and nothing is too dark to make the conscious decision to end it all. The author does an excellent job at illustrating her point through an amazing story of family, tragedy, and true love.’ Ruth A. Hill, reviewer of Promises My Love Final Fifteen Finalist 2014 ILA ‘A coming-of-age saga. The pitfalls of young love are as heart wrenching as adult love as Francis and Ruf discover.

author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
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.

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.

Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
