A short story of mine is also included in this anthology compounded by the writers group I belong to. Along with a wide variety of other stories is one I wrote called
The Ghost of Hi Jolly
. Hi Jolly was a Greek and Syrian camel driver who was part of an experiment to use camels in the American Southwest. After the experiment was abandon at the beginning of the Civil War, he settled in the town of Quartzite Arizona where he is buried. I wondered what would happen if his ghost still wandered the desert, that is where this story came from.
This story is now available in Kindle format
here.
This is a story that I was working on when the Amazon Shorts program quit taking submissions so I published it on Kindle and here is the

In my travels I have found little tidbits of legend surrounding the early settling of the west. One of which is the tale of how a stone found in Arizona came to be. How a band of Apaches moved the Great Spirit so much that He captures their tears in a simple black stone now known as Apache Tears.
