SUMMARY:Author talk with Patti Bender\, "Happy Landings: Emilie Loring's Life\, Writing\, and Wisdom"
DESCRIPTION:"After all\, living is the greatest thing any of us have to do. Why not make an art of it?" Emilie Loring\n\n Emilie Loring is a name unfamiliar to most but once upon a time\, the seasonal Blue Hill resident wrote 20th-century novels of romance and adventure that captured readers worldwide. Romantic comedies\, mystery men\, courageous women\, and the happy endings of today draw a direct line to the entertaining prose of Emilie Loring's romance novels.\n\n Emilie Baker Loring's novels sold a million copies during her lifetime and more than thirty-seven million in a dozen languages since her passing. Loring's books brim with intricate plot twists\, intense imagery\, and page-turning excitement\, setting her works apart from the drugstore novels of the early- to mid-twentieth century. Happy Landings: Emilie Loring's Life\, Writing\, and Wisdom shares this best-selling author's uplifting story for the first time. With never-before-published photographs\, privileged access to the Loring family archives\, and twenty years of meticulous research\, Patti Bender reveals a woman who lived as she wrote\, with intelligence\, humor\, and wisdom. This is a woman's story in swiftly changing times for women\; a charming story with little-known anecdotes about prominent authors and the story of a writer in the making\, with advice and encouragement for aspiring authors.\n\n After two decades of research and a lifetime of reading and re-reading her works\, Patti Bender unexpectedly found herself the world's expert on Emilie Loring. Bender left a thirty-year college teaching career to complete the author's biography and pursue writing full-time. Her website\, The Emilie Loring Collection (www.pattibender.com)\, is a gathering place for Emilie's lifetime fans. A native of Tempe\, Arizona\, Bender earned a B.A. with summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa honors in English and history at Trinity University\, an M.S. in leisure studies at the University of Illinois\, and a Ph.D. in human motor control at the University of Southern California. She lives in Lawrence\, Kansas.
