An extremely large, but shotty built tank of molasses, containing 2.3 million US gallons of weight,

approximately 13,000 short tons of hot liquid molasses, burst and the wave of molasses from this

Cloverleaf Radio's host The Host with the Most Jimmy Falcon welcomes Author Christy Parks AKA CL Parks AKA Lynn Howard, for a SPECIAL Cil-Con Virtual Party and Podcast!

CL Parks is an urban fantasy devouring,  lizard loving, chicken wrangling writer residing in rural Missouri with  her husband, kids, and a menagerie of animals. She has had a passion for  writing since reading Charlotte's Web in kindergarten. After rewriting  the ending to gift Charlotte with immortal life, she became obsessed.  Her tastes quickly moved from sweet and innocent to the supernatural  after reading Stephen King in fifth grade. Since the moment she picked  up Pet Semetary, she devoured every supernatural and preternatural book  she could get her hands on by authors ranging from Anne Rice to  Stephanie Rowe.

When not fully engulfed in the latest release or  typing away at her newest novel, you can find her corralling her  chickens, playing with her dogs, spoiling her large lizard or sewing a  new vintage inspired dress. Her dream is to travel the country in an RV  with her husband while writing more books...after the kids have gone on  to college, of course.

You can find CL Parks on Facebook or feel free to email her at [email protected]. She loves to hear from her readers.
