About the Book

For girls of the Tuscarora Nation in the Carolinas (1711), playing lacrosse is forbidden, but Running-Girl doesn't care. She's not a maiden yet, and besides, she's absolutely no good at women's chores. But Running-Girl is afraid. She's having flash-visions-dead bodies strewn about the lacrosse field; her village bursting into flames. She tells no one, but the visions become more detailed during her Maidenhood seclusion. They show the death and destruction of her village and her parents. When she shares her visions with the Clan Mothers of the village, her name is changed to Vision-Seeker in honor of the gift Creator has given her. However, her Clan Mother cannot help her interpret the meaning of her visions and many in the village don't believe her ... until the attack comes. The Vision Seeker, a Tale of the Tuscarora, is an historical YA novel set in North Carolina, 1711-1713.
About the Author: A native Texan, Mary Lois Sanders is the daughter of a Baptist preacher and a Baptist preacher's daughter-Dr. Ray and Jester B. Summers, both of whom were published authors in their special fields of expertise. They both loved music as well. Perhaps her love of both writing and music are in her genes, who knows? But she grew up loving to write, and also found she had a talent for singing. To this end, Mary Lois worked on her high school newspaper, wrote stories she never showed to anyone, and took voice and piano lessons. The voice lessons took, the piano just barely passed. As she tells it, her most obvious talent, then, upon entering college, was singing, so she chose to major in music, with dreams of someday singing at the Met. Two degrees from Baylor University and one degree from seminary followed-a Bachelor of Music with a Voice Performance Certificate, a Master of Music in Vocal Performance and Music Literature; and a Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) in Church Music/Vocal Performance. Her writing skills had become focused on academic articles and papers. After teaching for quite a few years, Mary Lois married and continued to act as minister of music in several churches, while beginning again to focus on writing, this time Bible Study curriculum for children and their teachers. Soon she branched out into the secular markets, with nonfiction articles in Cobblestone, Calliope and other periodicals. Her short stories have appeared in Boy's Life and several anthologies. The Vision Seeker is her first novel published. She is planning on two more in the series, based on the history of the Tuscarora. She's also working on a Revolutionary novel series for middle grade readers. Mary Lois is a member of SCBWI, Florida Writer's Association (FWA), and Editorial Freelancers Association (EFA). She's also Publisher/Managing Editor of Creative Writer's Notebook, a monthly newsletter for writers, and owner of Court Jester Publications.
