Book Clubs
I’d love to join your group for an online Author Chat. Or, if my travels take me to your area, an in-person meeting would be awesome. Who knows? Maybe I’ll bring the wine.
With a focus on strong women protagonists and stories of women's accomplishments which have languished in the shadows of history, my historical novels have become fast favorites with book clubs. A perfect choice to stimulate insightful discussions around women in history, as well as women's health and society issues - then and now. Hundreds of clubs have selected The Unlocked Path and/or The Path Beneath Her Feet to learn about women doctors during the first half of the 20th century, a time when less 5% of our doctors were women. I'm also excited that many clubs are slotting Under Two Flags onto their calendar as I stepped into a whole new world of opera and life in Berlin during World War I.
What They're Saying - Successful Author Chats, In-Person and over Zoom
"Our group typically has wonderful book discussions, and this one topped them all… The discussion was so rich having your perspective to guide us. And the questions you posed at the end of the book were very thought provoking." - P. Martin, Mashpee MA
"What an enjoyable discussion about The Unlocked Path. learning about you as a woman & the writer/now turned successful author." - P. Nisenholtz, Naperville IL
"Thank you again for coming to our HYC book club and sharing your writing journey and the background and inspiration for The Unlocked Path. We thoroughly enjoyed the discussion and will await your sequel with anticipation." - N. Dube, Hyannis MA
"I am getting so many compliments from the club members about how awesome it was to have you there. One member doesn’t usually read the book but just comes to the meetings. She said she was motivated to read it because you were going to be there. And raved about how much she enjoyed it and enjoyed reading. That made me feel so good." - P. Herm, Collegeville PA
