"Wayne tracked me down one afternoon and spent four hours in conversation before he inquiring about publication," said DonnaInk Publisher Donna Quesinberry. "That call marked the beginning of a creative partnership I will always treasure. Bringing his work to readers—and to the Surrattsville community he cherished—has been one of the great privileges of my publishing career."

Tatum's published works include Quarantina ~ A Quodlibet and Illustrated Tales for the Easily Entertained, both celebrated for their humor, insight, and uniquely Tatum‑esque voice. His newest and final title, Astonishing Travel Tales, will be released by DonnaInk Publications in April 2026. This luminous collection features reimagined favorites and brand‑new adventures, capturing the worldly curiosity, gentle brilliance, and faith‑infused humor that defined his writing. The Foreword for this final volume was contributed by John Previti, a celebrated musician known for his distinguished career in jazz, swing, and roots performance, whose tribute adds a meaningful artistic dimension to the work.
