Writer's Digest · Pushing the Frontiers of the Traditional WesternAuthor J.E. Weiner shares how she pushed the frontiers of a traditional western novel by incorporating other elements.

Hi Friends. I have many copies of my novel, ANYWHERE BUT SCHUYLKILL!
If you send me $27 via Venmo (@Michael-Dunn-565) and your mailing address, I will send you a signed copy! (Shipping included)

In 1877, twenty Irish coal miners hanged for a terrorist conspiracy that never occurred. Anywhere But Schuylkill is the story of one who escaped, Mike Doyle, a teenager trying to keep his family alive during the worst depression the nation has ever faced. Banks and railroads are going under. Children are dying of hunger. The Reading Railroad has slashed wages and hired Pinkerton spies to infiltrate the miners’ union. And there is a sectarian war between rival gangs. But none of this compares with the threat at home.
