Living the dream with retired academic turned author Gail Piner

Send us Fan MailGail Piner is a retired academic who is finally pursuing the career she thought she’d have when she was twelve. She doesn’t recommend waiting as long as she did to pursue your dreams. Gail is interested in strong women, resilience, and the humor and hope that can help us get through difficult times.Her first novel, A High Courage, is about all those topics and is based on the best example she has known personally—her grandmother. When not writing, she spends her time obeying her little Maltese/Bichon rescue pup, Katie Pogo, who has a real attitude. Gail lives on the coast of North Carolina, where her main forms of exercise are dodging beach traffic, hurricanes, and alligators.www.gailpiner.comSupport the show
