I freely give myself to the service of the Tales and to the people of the Camps. I forevermore leave the House of my Father, to be the one who remembers those gone to the Dust, who comforts those who work it still, and who will guide those yet to know it, until the Dust shall take my bones

You remember songs of Heaven, which you sang with childish voice. Do you love the hymns they taught you, Or are songs of Earth your choice?

A Little Story
When I was a child, the nearest large town,Hazard, was roughly 35 miles from where I lived. It seemed exotic, for it had restaurants there the small local town - itself a shorter but not insignificant distance away - did not, and a larger Wal-Mart with a more significant selection of things, especially toys and videos and the like.It also had movie theaters (something that the local town had lost before my time).
If this town was exotic and 'big', the city of Lexington was an alien place, as good as another country, some mystical place I saw once, possibly twice a year. It was around one hundred miles away from home, and a drive that seemed remarkably long to a young child from the southeastern Kentucky foothills - and it had stores and sights that made even the 'big town' of Hazard seem like my small 'home town' by comparison. Arcades, malls with stores dedicated entirely to video games, to books, to toys; food courts where there was pizza sold in slices as big as a plate, or Chinese food, and so on.
By the late 90s I had left the hills to live closer to Lexington, and I was exposed to the internet in its quasi-earlier days of public usage. The world became at once much bigger, and much smaller.
Looking back on it now,when I visit Hazard once a week for groceries and consider Lexington a rare trip but hardly less mundane for that,I cannot believe that there was a time when 35 miles seemed a phenomenal journey, and 100 miles a trip to a foreign land entirely. These places, these journeys, lost their wonder.
These memories are a formative element in the DNA of Songs of Earth - memories of when 35 miles was a journey of adventure, and when a small city 100 miles distant was an exotic place of unbelievable wonders.

Welcome, weary travelers.
You’ve stumbled onto the official blog of Kentucky-based author Eugene W. Cundiff. (That would be yours truly.)
I released my debut novel, under pseudonym, in May of 2017. While I am proud of my efforts, the response was lukewarm. What that novel (which i intend to revisit and re-launch in the future, this time under my own name) did achieve is to prove that I could fulfill my literary aspirations. When it released, I officially became a real novelist. Now it was simply a matter of becoming a successful one, right?
My first “official” novel is currently in the works, and I hope to have it ready for public release by late December of this year, just in time for the holidays. It is a much different sort of book than that seven-year test project, and I look forward to sharing it with audiences everywhere.
