Small Town Christmas
Author Nell Phillips' book has turned into a surprise best seller of this Christmas season. Nell's last stop on a book tour takes her the Annals of Emmett Turner, a man she met while both were copy editors at a New York publishing firm. Nell was hurt when Emmett stood up her to get a dinner date and disappeared without the excuse from New York. Since Nell is quick to admit, the colorful, nostalgic anecdotes around Springdale of Emmett inspired her to write this particular book that is shaping her life and especially this festival season.
