About the Book

Madam May, A Tale of Madams, Morphine, Moonshine, and Murder is based on true events in the life of the author's paternal grandmother. Set in Atlanta in the early 1900s, there were few options for a poor, rural, uneducated woman but Willie May Wheeler Collis Stamper Hogan Cobb was willing to do whatever it took to become an independent woman of means. A resourceful, strong, and appealing woman, May strives to overcome obstacles and achieve her goals. In spite of her foibles, you will cheer her on as she makes her way. If you enjoy Madam May, you will want to read After Madam May, What Came Next, a novella that tells about May's later journey in life. Dr. Chapman's novel, Dorothy May, takes the story even further as we learn about the tragic but engaging story of May's informally adopted daughter, Dorothy. Dr. Chapman discovered these astonishing secrets while doing genealogy research. She found that, indeed, truth can be stranger than fiction. She is an Atlanta native and describes herself as a bohemian southern belle. She is also the author of a memoir, This Teacher Talks, about her time teaching in public schools. You can learn more about Dr. Chapman as well as read her blog posts, poetry, and essays at www.georgiajanet.com.
About the Author: Janet Hogan Chapman, Ed.D. aka GeorgiaJanet The Bohemian Southern Belle Dr. Chapman was born, raised, and lived all her life in Georgia. Growing up in Atlanta in the 1960s could be wonderful, traumatic, exhilarating, and frightening. It was all of those things at some point or another. Those rich experiences provided stories just waiting to flow from the heart to the printed page. Her mission as The Bohemian Southern Belle is to empower strong women through prose and poetry. Just what is a Bohemian Southern Belle? Check out the blog post at http: //www.georgiajanet.com/?p=2225 to find out! A life-long writer, Dr. Chapman has published professionally on historical topics, infant education, preschool ministry, elementary education, and teacher education. You can read her essays, poetry, blog posts, and other information on her website, www.georgiajanet.com. She has published three novels, all based on true events. Madam May, a Tale of Madams, Morphine, Moonshine, and Murder. After Madam May (novella) tells what became of Madam May after being on trial for murder and how she came to be Dr. Chapman's grandmother. Dorothy May, tells the tragic but enduring story of Madam May's informally adopted daughter, Dorothy. She also has published one memoir, This Teacher Talks, What Really Goes on in America's Schools. It describes the events that take place over a school year among the faculty and staff of an elementary school. Dr. Chapman has worn many hats throughout her life, ranging from children's party costume character, to caterer, to Pediatric Physician's Assistant, to Preschool Minister, to Elementary Teacher, to University Professor. Now semi-retired, she is officially an "author." She enjoys spending time with family and friends, travel, reading, and genealogy research.
