What is the aim or goal of your writing:
I do many types of writing-memoirs, history, and for children. I believe I am successful with children's books because after working in education for 50 years, I can relate to the children, and can anticipate their responses.
I write memoirs-I have submitted my teaching journals to the Shiawassee Historical Society. I also have personal memoirs that may be handed down to my relatives.
I have compiled a history of my village so the "newcomers" will know about its history, which is fast becoming lost.
May inquiries be sent to you about doing workshops, readings: Yes
Inquiries may be sent to me for readings or presentations, but I may be limited as to distance, etc.
