The Gift

In a white clapboard house nestled near a pond deep in the woods, an elderly woman knits in her chair. Family photos in various sizes decorate the walls and dozens of small frames cover the surface of the table behind her offering a glimpse into the passage of time that has brought her to this day, this hour, this moment. Nearby, on the slouchy sofa amidst faded pink floral pillows her curly white Read more of this blog post »

Brenda Sorrels Hi Sol, Thanks for befriending me here on Goodreads! Your body of work is so impressive that I am a little intimidated! I will have to read SNOOZE now ... I have two books out ~ hoping that my writing is improving with each story as that is one of my goals. I'm working on #3 which will be a sequel to The Bachelor Farmers. Lots of work for me .. website needs updating, trying to promote and write, but I am positive you know what I'm talking about. Looking forward to knowing more about you and your work!

Sol Luckman Thanks for becoming a fan, Brenda! Your work looks great and inviting ... Looking at your most recent blog post, I just thought I'd let you know (in case you didn't already) that Part Two of my new novel, SNOOZE, takes place in a fictionalized Rhode Island. :-)
