SuperStar "SuperStar" Reviewer: Linda Wisniewski

       
Linda Wisniewski     I joined Story Circle Network about eight years ago and have been an Internet chapter member almost as long. I've facilitated an e-circle, written book reviews and was one of the editors of the Kitchen Table Stories anthology. Currently I'm on the board of SCN and a contributing editor of Story Circle Journal. I serve as regional representative of the International Women's Writing Guild.

For the past few years, I have been writing feature stories for a weekly newspaper here in Bucks County, Pa., and teaching memoir workshops through the Continuing Education Division of Bucks County Community College. I'm a substitute librarian as well, artfully managing to create a life full of books, reading and writing. And in April, 2008, Pearlsong Press will publish my memoir Off Kilter: AWoman's Journey to Peace with Scoliosis, Her Mother, and Her Polish Heritage. You can read about it here. If you'd like to know more about what I'm doing, check my website.
