My Love of the Eastern Shore
The skies on the Chesapeake Bay are like nothing I’ve ever seen before. This picture was taken at the headwaters of the Bay after a storm at sunset. My love for the Eastern Shore began in 2000 when my husband and I began renting a cottage at Evergreen Knoll in Betterton, MD. This community of seasonal cottages overlooks the Chesapeake Bay at the mouth of the Sassafras River. Before I knew it, I was writing a novel, which turned into the Annie Crow Knoll trilogy. Last May, Nancy Sakaduski, from Cat and Mouse Press, invited me to write a collection of short stories set in different Eastern Shore towns. I had spent seventeen years wandering around many of these locales, and the few I didn’t know well, I enjoyed visiting during this past year while writing Eastern Shore Shorts. The collection will be released on April 15, 2018, and it’s my joy to share this new adventure with you! Please visit me at www.gailpriest.com for more information. Cat & Mouse Press
