NEW RELEASE!
Martha Curtis-Dougherty
-
Thirty-Six Years Later. . .
Autobiography

136 pages - Soft cover

Thirty-Six Years Later. . . is the sequel to Martha Curtis' first book,
Bits and Pieces, when as a young house-wife and mother of three,
she hit upon a project to chronicle a year in her family's life. The
year was 1970.

In 2006, Double Edge Press asked her to do a follow-up in the same
autobiographical journal style. She was now Martha Dougherty, had
grandchildren, and her children were now middle-aged and facing
many of the same challenges she herself went through. What words
of wisdom would she have to share with them and a whole new
generation?

Many of the elements that made her original book a classic read are
still evident: the optimism, the simplicity, her faith in God to get her
through. Her day to day schedule is surprisingly even more active
than her first very busy writing nearly four decades earlier.

What does a 'retired' woman in her seventies do? Find out as you fly
with Martha to Vegas and Maine, take road-trips through
neighboring states, show in art festivals and run a photography
business and an internet site for her work. In between this she
somehow finds time to run a household, entertain, go to church,
attend weddings and, sadly, funerals, all while being a wife, a
mother, a grandmother, and becoming a great-grandmother.

Join her on an entertaining and thoughtful journey that reminds us
all of the importance of pursuing hopes and dreams no matter what
your age.
