What happened to Ethel Coe Holdcroft?

I watched a program on YouTube today called "Novelize Your Family Story" featuring Alison Armstrong Taylor and her book, "Finding Ethel." I wanted to read the book but cannot find it. I have found Lula Ethel Coe on Family Search but cannot find her on Findagrave. There is no trace of the book. The website for Alison and Tom Taylor called PicturesandStories.com has not been updated for a long time, her facebook page is cold (the last post was two years ago), there is no trace of the book with her other books on Amazon, etc.

Also, how is Ethel (Lula Ethel Coe Holdcraft) related to the Travis Wilson Coe featured in the video? I'm confused. There is also no findagrave memorial for Frank Spencer Holdcroft, who married Ethel. I'm very confused as to why this all disappeared. I looked at Instagram and other social media for Tom and Alison to no avail. Am I missing something here? It was a very interesting story but everything is vanished with no trace. Can someone help? Thanks!

    Try contacting the Taylors through their website: https://www.picturesandstories.com/contact

    I did already do that so maybe there will be a reply sometime. I watched the youtube video again and realized that the book cover shown there was just a mockup of a potential book. On her Family Search entry for Ethel there is an article about her. I think it's an ongoing project that has not been published as an actual book yet. I'm just puzzled as to why the author disappeared from all platforms. Oh, well, it was an interesting story. I am working on a similar project about an ancestor but mine has a completely different outcome. :)

    @CopperhairEmeraldeyes, that email was probably from another person commenting on the document Finding Ethel Coe attached to Lula Ethel Coe' Memories. You can see that comment (after your own comment) here: https://www.familysearch.org/photos/artifacts/101630976?p=9811720&returnLabel=Lula%20Ethel%20Coe%20(M12J-MRZ)&returnUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.familysearch.org%2Ftree%2Fperson%2Fmemories%2FM12J-MRZ
