- Hey Leslie, Your life sounds verrrry interesting to say the least and the book looks great. How are y'all doing in the holler? I drive through the Carolinas all the time on my way back and forth between Massachusetts and the Gulf Coast. Maybe we can meet in real life and have coffee. Our small but spunky Western Mass Writers Group had a get together and it was wonderful! Let me know what you're up to. Best, Nicky
