Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Oct 6, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Set in the Kiamichi Mountains of Oklahoma, M. Sparks Clark’s first book in the Ele Carmichael Novel Series, Bigfoot Watching Woman Watching Bigfoot, tells the story of bestselling thriller novelist Ele Carmichael, who, upon discovering that her longtime love is cheating on her, buys a luxury cabin in the backwoods of Oklahoma’s Kiamichi Mountains, sight unseen, and promptly moves there, only to discover that someone or something is already living there. Her determination to stay earns her the respect of the creatures and leads her to a group of unexpected friends who soon become like family–a family intensely interested in protecting the “guests” who live on her property. But when bigfoot hunters who want access to her property threaten her life, her fate is in the hands of these new friends to save her.
Clark’s decision to embrace the “rapid release” method sometimes used in indie publishing was a personal one. “I’m a binge reader, and everyone is a binge watcher these days! Streaming platforms set us up for the instant gratification of watching the next episode of our favorite new entertainment obsession. It just made sense to give my readers the same opportunity.”
M. Sparks Clark, whose tagline for her books is “Lighthearted Fun With a Spark of Paranormal”, will be kicking off the whirlwind that is to be her fall schedule this weekend at Honobia’s Festival. “It just made sense.” laughed Clark. “How could I NOT take Bigfoot Watching Woman Watching Bigfoot to the Bigfoot Festival?” Clark’s father sells property in the Kiamichi mountains and Bert, one of the main characters of the book, is inspired by him. Chuck Clark of Red River Realty in Talihina, OK will have a booth side by side with his daughter at the festival this year.
“So, you are telling me?—That it is quite likely that I just bought a house–a very expensive house–might I remind you? A very expensive house that you made a hefty commission selling to me—” I said pointedly. “And that it is already home to a family of—” At this, I stopped. Unable to continue for a moment, seemingly unable to say the words, the pause held until Bert could stand it no longer.
“BIGFOOT. Yes. I’m sorry. Not the cabin itself, of course. Bigfoot almost never take up residence in human homes.”
“Almost never?—What the actual f#@!, Bert?”
