MouseGate

Mouse Gate is a collection of adventure series starting at Disney World, written for the Pre-school, Pre-teens, Teens, and all those young at heart.

Initially, books in the series will center on Walt Disney® locations around the world (this could include Theme Parks, Disney Cruise Lines or any of Disney’s more than 500 resorts worldwide). Stories in subsequent books (using the same storyline concept) may include other popular recreational places of interest to our target audience. Depending of the series, the books can range from 100 to 350 pages. Within these adventure stories you will, with our heroes, be propelled into fantastic worlds filled with humor, mystery, thrills, action, cliff-hangers, twists and turns, and maybe even a little romance. We can’t say that every book with have all of these elements but they will all leave you wanting more! It is our plan to make each of these stories available immediately in the following paperback and digital book (eBook) formats with Audio books soon to follow. What the Future Holds
As the series develops, Mouse Gate also plans to publish condensed versions (about 24 to 32 pages) for younger full-color Children’s books, as well; some titles could be selected for conversion to full-color print and/or online graphic novels. It is also our plan, that with the future success of these series, the opportunity to collaborate with others to produce movies and/or a TV series, with episodes based on individual books in the series. Mouse Gate is a collection of 4 separate adventure series, written for the Pre-school, Pre-teens, Teens, and all those young at heart. These books, much like the Pirates: The Midnight Passage™, are written in a style and with content to appeal to readers of all ages.

Check out this incredible review on Betty Vaughn's Bear Tracks.

Dear Betty,
I completed reading BEAR TRACKS this past week and thought it would be fun to let you know why/how!

First of all, your plot dynamics are so well thought out that it is a joy to observe how smoothly (and threateningly!) the plot moves from one crisis to another, but never in a grim, gray manner; in one case, as the leadership team of POTUS, Dianna, and their attendants needs to move from the White House out to their transportation to Wilmington, NC, for some necessary R & R, they dress in outlandish disguises, entertaining the reader as well as the tourists visiting the President’s home—and escaping scot-free! So, in that turn of the plot, you bring in staging, costuming, and humor on a grand scale—something totally NEW to camouflage the dangers on every side! Plot is a key skill of yours, and the reader admires it wherever it takes him/her! Brava!

Yet your writing also appears to smoothly guide us to intermittent scenes of love and kind repartee between the married couple in the story, Quint and Lila, lowering the stress & natural anxiety that “enters in” at intervals of threat and possible loss of life among those the married partners are asked to protect. Thus, unlike many, many other novels, the scenes relieved by talk and affection between a married couple serve to relieve the gathered tensions of threats on every hand, and what a fine relief it is, too—just in time, often! So Betty, hooray to you for your rare ability to know when to change the dynamics of the story with a “soft and thoughtful” scene between the two principals, then ramp up tension, secrecy, and anxiety again just when the reader is rested and ready for some fighting to the death!

Keep writing, now! Exercise your gifts and abilities again to entertain with refreshing plots in humor, sheer danger, and moments of repartee—and many thanks for sharing your lively BEAR TRACKS with this ready reader!
With best regards and many thanks,
Linda Hobson
