Next Friday – The First Writing Festival Friday at Perspectives on Writing

September 14, 2007 By Linda Jo Martin 3 Comments

Next Friday I’m starting something new. I’m calling it Writing Festival Friday. It will be a day when writers can come here and leave their links to their websites, books, blogs or whatever they want to share.

About Me

Hi, I'm Linda, the Book Lady, and I'm excited about reading. A book is a gift you give yourself. It is so much fun to open that cover and discover what was hidden within. Books share the wisdom of the ages with us. Who wouldn't want that? So I read frequently and encourage reading. If you're a reader, let me know by becoming my friend on GoodReads.


My novel, River Girl, is about a girl living in the Klamath River Valley.

All about Linda's Life.
