I have been a professional writer since 1987. I've written for newspapers, magazines, worked in the book publishing industry, and published novels and non-fiction books. In addition, I've guided numerous authors through the process of independent publishing, and offer workshops in that same vein. I'm the founder of the Parkinson's Comfort Project and over the course of six years, we gathered and gave away over 500 handmade quilts to people with Parkinson's disease.

More Bookshelves in the Future?

Not that Edie Wolfe needed any more books in her house but who can resist a book sale set in a garden on a cool summer morning?

Not Edie Wolfe. As a matter of fact, her friend Ruth Goodwin was just bragging about how she’d managed to find a little more shelf space for books in her sewing room.

Hmmm, maybe not any more.

Anyhow, the two friends had a wonderful time prowling through this sale, knowing that all the dollars they spent would help support the Norwich Public Library.

And as Edie observed: “There was a lot of good stuff there. And one can always find space for more books.”
