Brothers Keeper (2006)
Brothers Keeper, the second in the series
started with Mysterious Ways, shines on its own.
Author Terry Burns writes with poignant emotions, relatable characters, and a thoroughly
enjoyable plot. Professionally written, Brothers Keeper, takes the reader on an
exciting trip into the old west, but without really being a western. The inspirational thread, while pivotal in the plot, is neither preachy nor offensive. The return of some of the characters from the first book was like visiting with old friends. Well written and a delight to read, Terry Burns has turned out another winning novel!

Shepherds Son (2006)
Mr. Burns stands in a long line of cowboy storytellers, and Shepherds Son is vintage Terry Burns. In this deceptively simple story of a sheepherder clashing with cattle ranchers and finding true love in the process, he spins another one of his signature yarns of grace and subtlety. Reading a Terry Burns novel is like sitting around a campfire out on the trail under a sky full of moon and stars, listening to tales shared by the cowpokes in their soft, unhurried drawl.

Trails of the Dime Novel (2006)
Trails of the Dime Novel is a delightful new book, especially for younger readers. As Rick Dayton heads West to write the little books that were so popular at the turn of the century, little did he know he would not be writing the adventures, but living them. Each chapter resulted in another of the small tomes, full of humor, and fascinating tales. It's a great read even for adults.

Mysterious Ways (2005)
Reviewer:
Joan M. Shoup "J. M. Hochstetler" (Charlotte, TN United States)
Terry Burns has crafted a deceptively simple, often humorous story that reveals layers of profound truth as you turn the pages. And turn those pages, you will! Whether you like Westerns or not, you'll be captivated by this story of a thief's redemption. Burns brings his characters to life with a deft and easy touch, and before you know it, you not only care deeply about their fates, but you're actually rooting for the "bad" guy to see the light and laughing out loud as his well-laid plans lead him to a reward considerably more valuable than what he had in mind. Read this story for entertainment, but don't be surprised if you find yourself moved in ways you didn't expect.

Don't I Know You? (2003)
Les Williams Lincoln, Nebraska United States
Larry Smith is a common name for a cowboy. But it's not Larry's name folks remember. Everyone Larry meets feels like they know him from somewhere which leads to all sorts of consequences. There all kind of surprises in store for the reader of Terry's WONDERFUL STORY-DON'T I KNOW YOU? Terry Burns has done it again...written a very good inspirational western that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!

I've been sensing a change in the way editors look at receiving submissions where the person submitting indicated the manuscript is finished versus a person submitting on proposal with a deadline for completion. We've long known the book needed to be...

So many writers think they are through when they write the story. Actually that's when crafting the story should begin. Like a director of a movie that takes all the raw scenes that he's shot and goes into the cutting room to weave them into a movie,...

Happy New Year!
We all make New Year resolutions. But generally, within a few weeks they have all become casualties of our busy schedules, inconsistency or just plain 'ol lack of will power. So in light of this a most common pitfall, we thought we would ask our FB friends to ponder and answer the following question...
What is the smallest change with the greatest impact you can now make to bring you closer to a personal goal or just simply much needed change at home, at work or in life?

Greeting, Terry, from Va. Beach. I'm glad to see you're still ridin' the horses and wearing the 10-gallon. Your new pic takes you from being a calm cowboy to someone who can draw and hit what he aims at. Hope all is well with you and your better half. Keep smilin'...Lee
