From the May 24, 2019 issue of Pages of the Past I love synchronicity in action. A book signing at a local library two months was one of those moments. Seven local authors were invited. I already knew two of the authors. The others were new names to me. Two tables over were co-authors, Peggy …

Gloria Caviglia
From the May 10, 2019 issue of Pages of the Past I first read Gloria Caviglia’s writing when she submitted a story to my anthology, In Celebration of Mothers. In Mindy’s Gift, she wrote about how her mother had a gift. When anyone finished a sentence, her mother would repeat the last word and break …
Susanne Matthews

Jillian Chantal
--- From Pages of the Past 4/12/19 issue --- I first read Jillian Chantal’s writing when I joined an online writing group, Tuesday Tales, about five years ago.

Emily-Jane Orford
Emily-Jane Orford was the featured author on the April 5, 2019 issue of Pages of the Past. We're pleased to share her interview with you here. ***** Interestingly enough, I didn’t meet Emily-Jane Orford through a historical fiction avenue. Thanks to this wonderful digital world we live in now, I ‘met’ Emily-Jane through an essay …
