I’m Marjorie Laughlin and I would like to tell you a little about myself. My husband Bill and I have lived in West Seattle for 48 years-newcomers. We raised five kids and enjoy five grandchildren.
About two and one-half years ago, when I was sitting in my living room and saw the sunset and wanted to capture what I saw in words, so I picked up a pencil and started writing.
I have been writing since then. Last August I published a book of poetry titled “I Loosed My Father’s Boots.” It can be purchased at Amazon.
