For autographed copies of my three books (Pocket Girdles, Postcards from Potato Land or Lessons with Love), send me a note at potatohead89@hotmail.com. I'm 64, married, mother of two, retired English/journalism teacher. Now, a freelance writer/ author: www.mariannelove.com. I love writing, gardening, the outdoors, horses and traveling. My quirky, sometimes irreverent sense of humor comes naturally through family genes. So, bear with me.
