A trite aphorism among authors is “write what you know.” But how about writing that captures a time before you really knew anything?
Susan Letzler Cole, Ph.D., Professor of English and Director of the Concentration in Creative Writing at Albertus, is tackling this very subject in her latest book, “They Made A List: A Memoir Beyond Memory,” an exploration of her first 200 words spoken as a child, dutifully recorded by her parents.
Soon to be published by San Diego State University Press (https://sdsupress.sdsu.edu) and available on Amazon, “They Made A List” is part of a long list of her works, including “Serious Daring: The Fiction and Photography of Eudora Welty and Rosamond Purcell” and “Missing Alice: In Search of a Mother’s Voice.” Congratulations, Dr. Cole!
