Tied to the Tracks discussion

Over at the Full Bookshelves forum they have started a group discussion of Tied to the Tracks, organized and moderated by Pam. The first questions were very interesting

I’m looking forward to following along but I probably won’t say too much because (as people have just recently been pointing out) an author can’t control how readers understand or interpret even what seems to be the most straight forward prose. And I’m more interested in what readers think than in explaining what I hoped they would think.

My name is Rosina Lippi. I'm a former academic and tenured university professor,  writing full time since 2000. Under the pen name Sara Donati I am the author of the Wilderness series, six historical novels that follow the fortunes of a group of families living in upstate New York from about 1792-1825. A new series based on later generations of the same families was launched September 1, 2015 with The Gilded Hour. The next volume in the new series,  Where the Light Enters, was  released in 2019.
