About this ebook

The Writer’s Apprentice is a concept book. It is made up of a unique time-travel, novella sized story, wrapped around a collection of multi-genre short stories. It maintains a cohesive blending throughout. Even though it may be marked otherwise, all content within has been written by Author Dennis Higgins

“Suddenly she felt something like a beckoning to the inner pantry door within the den. It was as if it called to her.”

Indie author Maren Brown is overjoyed when she receives a letter from her literary idol inviting her to meet with him to discuss a collaboration. Jack R. Croft has made millions from his time-travel novels and Maren is amazed at how realistic his books are. However, the truth is stranger than fiction, and there is a LOT more to Jack’s proposition than it initially seems.

Who is Jack Croft and what is his connection to Maren?
Why is his housekeeper so frosty towards her?
Can Maren set aside her skepticism about what she is being asked to do, lay ghosts to rest, and find a resolution to a love story that spans generations?

The writer’s apprentice is a classy, genre-busting time-travel story with an element of mystery that invites the reader to question whether true love ever really fades.
