Novelist to host book launch at North Battleford Library
A B.C. novelist with ties to the Battlefords area will launch her new title at the North Battleford Library.
Elinor Florence will be meeting with readers and chatting about her latest novel Wildwood and her first novel Bird’s Eye View on Saturday, June 9. Florence said any time she can get back to the Battlefords area is a blessing for her.
“I like to come home as frequently as I can,” she said. “My brother and his wife still run the family farm where I grew up, so it’s always nice to get home.”
Florence grew up on a farm near Brada, and began her working career at the Advertiser-Post in North Battleford before moving on to work in all four western provinces as a newspaper writer and editor for over 30 years.
