D5 member Charlotte Crawford submitted this news. Myrne Roe, long-time KAC member, recently held a book signing at Watermark Book for her new book-- Now That I Am Older: Poems and Short Stories.
Her poems get to the very heart of things. Whether she is talking about a funeral—her own—or squirrels, or pondering a wedding ceremony and how fleeting life's defining moments are, or just what it is like to live a full and examined life, her wisdom and inner truth is a salve to me."
Now That I Am Older (published by Post Rock Press) is a collection of poems and short stories written by Myrne Roe exploring her life of eighty-seven years. You will find yourself rereading the honest, poignant, and sometimes cynical narratives of Roe’s reflections about Kansas people, places, and events.
I encourage you to check out this book and support a local author by purchasing it.
