I love doing my blog. I have invited some of my fellow historic SMP writers for interviews. The response to my invite was encouraging. I also invite my Connecticut Chapter of Romance Writer’s (CTRWA) of America writers. Without my CTRWA group, I wouldn’t even be here. They are amazing. One of our writers won the Rita Award this year. We have quite a chapter in Connecticut. Hi, Writersβ€” Today, Bonnie S. Johnston, a Soul Mate Published author of THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN, is my guest to share her amazing story with you. Bonnie has researched her family history, and discovered the complications and dangers of crossing America in the 18th century. There were witches, Indians and bad boy narcissistics. Cheers,
Gail

interior design, that she eventually sold, but during her tenure, she was twice
asked by publishers to write a textbook, her efforts were thwarted by a heavy
schedule.

travel and enjoy tennis. Currently, she sits on the Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum
Board of Trustees and serves as Curator of Art for exhibitions at the museum.

She is a member of the CTRWAβ€”Connecticut Chapter of Romance Writer’s of America.

Today I worked on my genealogy. My grandparents came from
Italy in the late 1890s and early 1900s. I never thought to
study that time era.
