Delmarva Today: Writer's Edition #60

Angela Byrd

It’s summer and we’re talking about the beach today; the sand, the sun, the warmth that draws us by the thousands to the edge of the sea. For those who live along the edge of the ocean, and even for those who visit for a short period of time a way of life develops that is more relaxed, open, and even accepting. There is a tactile sense—a feel of touching, being more like one with the rawness of nature. We could say there is something we might call beach life. Host Harold Wilson’s guest on today’s Delmarva Today: Writer’s Edition is Nancy Sakaduski. Nancy is owner of Cat & Mouse Press and organizer of the Rehoboth Beach Reads Short Story Contest. Cat & Mouse Press publishes beach reads for adults and children, including an annual anthology that contains the winning entries from the short story contest. The latest anthology is Beach Life. Joining Wilson along with Nancy are Mary Pauer, one of the contest judges, Jackson Coppley, author of “The Bomber Jacket”, Marie Lathers, author of “Rearrangements,” and Robin Glanden, who will provide a special reading of that story.
