Lawhoma Hills: A Year Behind the Pink Door - Paperback

McHale, Ellis: - Ellis McHale writes Southern literary novels set in Lawhoma Hills, a fictional woodland town in Oklahoma where anthropomorphic animal families live full human lives shaped by land, memory, and community. Her stories move through drought and harvest, grief and laughter, and the quiet work of tending what has been entrusted to us.An Oklahoma native, Ellis is a mother and grandmother who finds her rhythm in the garden, on a back porch at dusk, or with twin grandsons tugging at the curtains. She writes with dirt under her nails in a house filled with music and dogs underfoot.She cares deeply about her home state, about partnership with the natural world rather than conquest of it, and about preserving the small ordinary moments that become memory. When she is not writing, she is sketching, planting something new, or claiming a Sunday nap without apology.Ellis McHale is the author of the Lawhoma Hills series and founder of Pink Door Publishing.
