Shoreline Women Celebrate Book Launch
The Paperback Café is hosting three shoreline authors, for a book signing to celebrate the launch of their newly released novels. The group has been meeting for two years to support each other. Coming from various backgrounds with a common desire to finish works in progress or bring new ideas to fruition, the group began gathering. They met while taking a writing program together, each one with a different story and motivation to craft the great American novel. Hillary Gauvreau Oat is the author of the Ogilvie Family Series set in Niantic, where she resides. Unaware that she had it in her, she began writing with a vengeance as the group began their commitment to each other and their craft. She first published It’s About Time, a suspenseful romance, and the sequel titled Thomas’s Second Chance is just being released. Joanne Moore, a retired physical therapist, wrote The Invincibles: A Story of Love, Loss, and Doughnuts. Her novel focuses on five people who meet in a grief support group after the loss of their spouses. The message is that grief is normal and universal, and though we never ''get over it'', we can learn to walk with it. Synchronicity-Two Hearts, One Spirit, a Forbidden Love is the debut novel by award-winning writer and published poet Patricia Ann Chaffee. Featuring two mid-life characters on journeys of discernment, the story is about faith, forgiveness, friendship, and a very forbidden love, and takes place on Cape Cod. “We hope folks come to enjoy a delicious meal at the Paperback Café, or stop by to say hello, purchase books, or get a complimentary bookmark,” said Chaffee. “All are welcome.” The Book Signing Event is at The Paperback Café, 210 Main St., Old Saybrook, from 11:00-2:00, Saturday, June 28th.
