Hello, I'm Elena and I'm the author of The Doc Holliday Series ( A Wicked Little Town, A Gentleman in Hell and A Bloody Revenge) a trilogy of novels that chronicle the life of dentist and gunfighter, Doc Holliday. I love horses and riding so I've always loved western movies simply because they're horse movies apart from anything else. After watching Tombstone and Wyatt Earp, I became fascinated with Doc Holliday. I wanted to know more about his life, which wasn't that easy to research in Scotland. My obsession with Doc led to me talking to people online in America. One of these people was to become my future husband. I left Scotland in 99 and moved to America to be with my husband and his family. I lived in Kentucky for ten years before moving back to Scotland 5 years ago. While all of this was going on I was reading and writing about Doc Holliday. While in America, I visited Griffin, Georgia (Doc's birth place) and went out to Tombstone, Arizona as part of my research (and also for fun). I really just want to share Doc's story with people. I think he was a remarkable individual. I think the problem with writing about famous western characters is they get tangled up in their legends and cease to become real people. I've tried really hard to untangle Doc. Elena www.elenasandidge.comtwitter: elenasandidge Amazon: www.amazon.com/Elena-Sandidge/e/B00GKR794W/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_pop_1
