“Green-Eyed Phantom” in Unfixed Timelines 3
“Green-Eyed Phantom” combines three of my favorite things to write–historical fiction, young characters, and siblings. It’s a story in which two pre-teen sisters attend a Civil War soldiers’ reunion with their parents and encounter something unexpected. I based the setting on the many, many old newspaper articles I read about these Civil War soldiers’ reunions in the 1870s and 1880s, when Ulysses S. Grant attended many events of this sort.
“Green-Eyed Phantom” first appeared in Whigmaleeries & Wives’ Tales, and you can also read it in Unfixed Timelines 3 or Unfixed Timelines Omnibus, where it appears with an essay about the unexpected portion of the story.
