[Will Waller]

This is a book of a personal friend as she recalls memories from the past. Some are especially touching, including the story about the young man that she meets at the beach and the ones about her father. SHe gets mighty personal with a discussion of domestic violence. Some are patriotic, others highlight a friend. Each is from an article in Richmond Magazine. Easy reads, or as she says, bathroom reads. Nancy is a friend, and is a heck of a writer.

Nancy Wright Beasley is a dear friend, and I got to know her even better reading her collection of essays about her life and the people in it. You may never know Nancy personally, but you can come very close reading this book. If you’re ever in Richmond, Virginia, look her up. You won’t be sorry.
