.I write fiction, creative non-fiction and lifestyle articles. Currently I'm concentrating on creative non-fiction, especially about my childhood growing up in the '40's and '50's.I now have a blog about my life (before and after Elvis!) You can find me at www.carolscourtyard.com

I've just returned from the "Elvis Tribute" tour that took place May 7th-19th, 2013 in Denmark, Finland, Paris, France, and Holland. We did 8 shows, mostly sold out, in venues ranging from 350 to 750 capacity. There were eight of us in the band, and five of us actually worked with Elvis either in the studio or on the road. It was so much fun to work with the Holladay Sisters again, and to meet Stump, Duke,, J.J.,Carl, and Robert. It was also great to meet a lot of Elvis fans and sign autographs for them!I'm already hoping we will do this again next year! I sang backup for 20 years in Nashville with groups like the Jordanaires, the Nashville Edition, and also independently with Bergen White, Buzz Cason, and others. Some hits I was on are "Paper Roses" (Marie Osmond), "Kentucky Rain", "In the Ghetto", and "Suspicious Minds"(Elvis), the Bob Dylan album, Robert Knight's "Everlasting Love" and many, many others. I also worked a few times on Hee Haw, and did backuo at the Country Music Awards.
