The Writer’s Life: May 2012
Harvesting Ashwood: Minnesota 2037 is close to taking its first independent steps on June 1. Press releases are out, the book is at press, interviews are scheduled, events are planned. Unlike children who are prepared then gradually given their freedom, a book emerges like a sixteen-year-old who has just passed her driving test. Hopefully the road will be smooth and run forever.
Two special events have been scheduled in the Twin Cities. On June 8, I will be reading with Faith Sullivan, author of the Cape Ann and other books about a family recovering from the Great Depression. ”Out of the Bad Times” is a look at how families stay together and survive economic hardships–both in the past and future. Tentatively Gail MarksJarvis, author of the bestselling Saving for Retirement without Living Like a Pauper or Winning the Lottery, will be joining us to add advice about preparing for financially rough roads. See more in Events.
Save June 21 if you are in the Twin Cities for “Women Behaving Strongly,” a delightful event at The Open Book featuring Harvesting Ashwood: Minnesota 2037 and work by Pam Leonard and Gary Lindberg. More on this event later in Events.
Harvesting Ashwood: Minnesota 2037 is available for pre-order on Amazon.com and will be available on Kindle closer to its official June 1 release.
