Morrow councilman's novel touches on city politics
Female main character is also on a town council, deals with developers
Atlanta Journal-Constitution, August 10, 2006 by Eric Stirgus
Morrow City Councilman Tom LaPorte is a modern-day Renaissance man.
Teacher. Religious scholar. Jogger. Novelist.
A novel by Morrow City Councilman Tom LaPorte tells the tale of a councilwoman who looks for the truth about developers' plans.
Tom LaPorte's novel, 'Revealed, A Mary Jack Campaign,' seems loosely based on Morrow.
In June, Baltimore-based PublishAmerica published LaPorte's 329-page novel "Magnolia Revealed — A Mary Jack Campaign." It is the tale of Mary Jack Gordon, a woman appointed to the Magnolia City Council who is the lone voice of concern when developers submit plans to build Magnolia Meadows, a gated community in the city.
