Synopsis

Sail along with Ermine as she navigates the unpredictable waters of life with humor and hope. Car chases, salsa dancing, trailer spying and meatball wars all point the way back to her first love: humor writing. Following a rewarding career teaching English to refugee children in Syracuse, NY, the author struggled to find new purpose in retirement. She discovered that poking fun at herself and the world is her calling, and jumped headfirst into writing that brings laughter to our journey through life.

À propos de l?auteur

It all began in 1968 with Dear Pappy, her lighthearted advice column in the North Syracuse High School newspaper. Now, after a forty-six-year hiatus, Ermine is happily back in the humor writing biz. She completed a two-year Creative Nonfiction program in the Syracuse Downtown Writers Center, and her story, Sometimes Dreams Do Come True, was featured on the Erma Bombeck Writers Workshop website. Ermine lives in frigid Syracuse, New York but will relocate to a grass hut on Maui once she hits the one million mark in book sales. Won't you help her realize her dream? Watch for the sequel in 2024!
