Afterward, We Ate

Yesterday, I met up with Laura Toffler-Corrie, Ann Haywood Leal, Jame Richards, Sari Bodi, and Michaela MacColl for a panel at the Ridgefield Library in lovely Ridgefield, CT.  The local kids were painting Halloween pictures on the local businesses and there were balloons everywhere, so it was a fun day on Main Street.  About forty people came by to hear a bit of advice on writing and publishing, and then asked questions.  I liked finding out there were other loner writers in the audience, the types who, like me, avoid writers’ groups.

Afterward, we dined at Fifty Coins Restaurant, and I discovered there’s such a thing as cranberry mayonaise.  Who’d have guessed?

Many thanks to Laura Toffler-Corrie for setting it up!

  • Hello Mrs. O’Brien,

    My name is Chelsea Arruda. I am a former student of yours. I really hope you get to see this comment, because I am working on a book of my own and I have several questions and so far you are the only english teacher who really inspires me.

    So if you could please email me at chelseaarruda@ yahoo.com, I would very much appreciate it if we could keep in touch seeing as I dont think you work at Tolland High anymore.

    Sincerely your former student,
    Chelsea Mae arruda

  • Dear Chelsea Mae,
    It’s great to hear from you. Look for a reply in your email.
    All best,
    Ms. O’Brien
