When Marsha Ward wrote her first novel in 1993, she had no idea how many characters were going to come along and inhabit a world so vast that it takes two interlocking series (at present) to contain them all.
The Owen Family characters live their lives within, well, mostly within The Owen Family Saga series. Then characters who aren’t members of the Owen family show up with urgent tales to be told. Marsha created the Shenandoah Neighbors series for them. But with the Owen party’s migration to the West, other characters have popped up, and play a part in the original characters’ lives. What’s going to happen when they demand that their stories be told? A character from Surprising Charity wants a romance. What is Marsha going to do?
