Poetry & Prose Author bios
Patricia Ann Chaffee is a fiber artist, an award-winning writer, a published poet, and the author of Synchronicity- Two Hearts, One Spirit, A Forbidden Love, and Poetry from a Magic Cottage by the Sea. Living on the Connecticut shoreline, she considers Cape Cod her second home.
After working with writers and creative souls for several decades as a Retreat Facilitator, Expressive Arts Educator, and Spiritual Director, she celebrates life by the ocean. Loving all things simple, spiritual, quiet, and creative, she is now working on the sequel to Synchronicity. As a weaver, she creates hand-woven tapestries and weaves words into poetry as she is inspired.
Hillary Gauvreau Oat lives in Niantic, Connecticut, where the three novels in the Ogilvie Family Series are set. Her thirty-year practice as an energy healer brings empathy, compassion, and depth to her characters. The Ogilvie Family Series has been called emotional dynamite wrapped in seaside charm.
Hillary believes that one way or another, love always finds a way, and the Ogilvies prove that. The three novels in the series stand alone but, like many series, are more fun if you read them in order. She is writing book four, tentatively titled Brady's Revenge, now for next summer's release.
Whether you're local and visiting the shop or ordering a signed copy online, we can't wait for you to discover your next favorite read.
