NEW FRIENDS with SAND DOLLARS

One of the great things about traveling around promoting my “Seashells” book this past summer is that we met many wonderful people. Francis and Sandy Morley are no exception. In fact, they were also very excited to share with us that Francis had just published a book! When I mentioned that I was up there to sign books at the nearby Candleshack, on Cape Elizabeth - they exclaimed that they had plans to be there the next afternoon! Funny how chance meetings bring such nice surprises. We did see them the next day at the Candleshack and they bought several books. When Sandy read my book she was surprised because I had included a fish bone vertebrae in the book! She said she had found one after we parted and wondered what it was - now she knew!
It was a series of serendipities that I will always remember. It was super to meet these two sweet, kind, remarkable people and their girls.
Francis Morley’s book is a “lighthearted look at a childhood faced with disabilities” and is available at:

(His book also has a sand dollar on it’s cover!)
