Early fall finds me busy booking and planning yet more events and garnering new reviews.
My latest 4 reviews are in the format of short videos.
I'm thrilled to hear from my publisher that my biography is doing well, in fact one Histria's leading sellers of the year.
Next week I'll be speaking at the Rotary Club in Camden, Maine, the second Rotary presentation I've been invited to do. The first one, in Boothbay Harbor, was particularly fun for me as I had my son and grandsons in the audience.
In mid-October I travel to Boston to give a talk and slide show where I've been invited by a church in which Perkins herself spoke in the 1950's. She was also born in Boston.
I've also accepted invitations to do talks, Q&A's and signings when I get back to SC, at community senior centers in James Island and West Ashley.
As yet to be scheduled is a presentation to students at Christ Church Episcopal School in Greenville, SC. I hope to visit many more schools.
All of us associated with the Frances Perkins Center are awaiting a big piece of expected news in the near future: official word that the Perkins family ancestral homestead (75 acres on the Damariscotta River in Newcastle) and home of the FPC. has been named the newest National Monument! This will be HUGE and will give Perkins the widespread notoriety and name recognition she has so long deserved.
(It can't help but boost my sales, too!)
