Mike Parker is an award-winning freelance writer, actor, director, novelist, playwright & screenwriter.  A BA degree in Bible and Philosophy, a stint as an officer with the US Army Special Forces (Green Berets), a career as a stock broker during the great bull market of the eighties, and an entrepreneurial plunge into the uncertain world of television syndication have all combined to give him a unique outlook on the world. Mike's latest book The Scavengers: Book I of the Tyrfingr Chronicles is a fantasy novel.

The Grave Distractions team is looking forward to seeing Mike and Paula at the festival!  If you would like your book to be represented at this year's Southern Festival of Books, click here or contact us via this link.

Haunted Nashville at the Southern Festival of Books

Grave Distractions Publications will be representing the owners of Nashville Ghost Tours Kim and Frankie Harris' book Haunted Nashville at this year's Southern Festival of Books.   

Haunted Nashville unravels the mysteries surrounding some of Music City's most recognizable landmarks.  Who has been ringing the bells at St. Mary's Catholic Church in the dead of night?  Is Andrew Jackson's spirit still riding his ghostly stallion through his plantation home, the Hermitage?  Why have there been reports of ghostly fighting at the State Capitol?  Learn of the terror in room 711 at the Union Station Hotel and in Civil War morgues and hospitals that still bear phantom forms of Confederate soldiers.  Decide for yourself if Hank William's apparition is still performing at the Ryman Auditorium.  Nashville's tragic love stories and grisly murders are as fascinating as the haunted tales themselves!
