Autorenporträt
Carol Corliss enjoyed a career in social work and parenting education. Now retired, she travels frequently, volunteers in a bereavement ministry at her church, relishes discussing books, and has taken up choral singing again (Go, altos!). She gets a thrill out of coaxing pots of bacopa and lantana into surviving from Easter through Thanksgiving on her porch in Central Connecticut. She can be reached at CarolCorliss@comcast.net.
