Would love to chat with you. As you, I write in all styles and genres. This year published Destiny’s Daughter highlighting life of Mary Edwards Walker, Civil War soldier, surgeon and suffragist. Just received a National League of Pen Women Nonfiction award. An earlier nonfiction Escape to Freedom also won awards.
Age 87 so have 50 years of writing experience from newspapers & mags, to marketing (Managing Nat’l Hot Dog Council) plus 11 books from children to adults. Have done several podcasts on writing, improving conversations and urging people to journal as a therapy to decrease depression. Let’s give your listeners a switch up to an American (Baltimore) writer’s journey and how we have to be willing to greet change. .
