Hello

Hi I'm new to eons and this group. I've been writing for about 4 years. My first published book was a baby boomer memoir, "Nothin' Like I Thought...A Baby Boomer's Look in the Rear View Mirror" about ten women who came of age in the sixties. I have a short story, "Who Let the Dogs Out?" published in Chicken Soup for the Child's Soul. I will also have a children's book co-authored with a friend to be published this summer. I'm writing as my 3rd career in retirement. I started as a teacher for 17 years then moved to IBM as a client rep for 17+ years and now I'm really having fun writing. I must admit that the publishing and marketing part isn't nearly as much fun as the writing.

HI and welcome, Arlene. The title of your book "Nothin' Like I Thought: A Baby Boomer's Look in the Rear View Mirror" sounds really interesting. being published in The Chicken Soup books gives you a lot of clout.

Hi,
Thanks...wish the "clout" translated into income! I'm working on a third novel, Quid Pro Quo. I'm waiting on an agent to pick it up. By the way, have you read The Glas Castle by jeannette Walls...really interesting memoir. She had a tough childhood!

Welcome! I'm another newbie here. :-) I love the title of your new book. If titles sell, then you should see books flying off the shelves!
