Living Lessons Contributor Elayne Clift
Readers may be interested to know that Elayne Clift, whose essay "A Voice from the Past" appears in our recently published book Living Lessons, has authored a memoir that takes readers further into her growing up in small-town America in the 1950s.

To New Jersey, With Love and Apologies (OGN Publications, 1999) is a coming-of-age collection of prose and poetry that captures the experience and impressions of an intuitive young girl challenged by family illness, minority status (she is Jewish), and the values of a small community.Elayne looks back with nostalgia and humor while offering insights that resonate with others who remember the loneliness of adolescence. Written as a remembrance after she lost her parents and siblings, the book has been called "a bouquet of memories."

A visit to Elayne's website, www.elayneclift.com, will reveal all her published works as well as her monthly blog and a sample of the workshops she leads.
Living Lessons is available at www.whisperingangelbooks.com. Amazon.com and BN.com.
