Description
In today’s episode, I am chatting with Gail McGuire. Gail is the author of Raised on Freedom: Favored Tales of a Boomer Kid. Gail doubted she would ever write a book. A psychic, her friends and her children told her she would. So she tried and here she is as a first-time author. Gail was born and raised in Southeast Idaho. Her book flight today focuses on childhood memoirs during the baby boomer years, I hope you enjoy it. Happy listening!
