Welcome to the That Summer in Franklin WebSite.

A bit about the author :


Linda Hutsell-Manning began courses at the University of Guelph as a mature student, intending to return to teaching. Instead, encouraged by two professors to pursue writing full-time, she graduated with a BA in English in 1975 and set to work. She has twelve published children's books, as well as short fiction and poetry in various literary magazines.

Now, at age 70, her debut novel That Summer in Franklin has been released by Second Story Press, Toronto. Below is Linda's comment on reaching this publishing milestone :

"On entering my Seventieth Year" 

by Seventy -
I can
make pronouncements
rail at mediocrity
tackle staid tradition
slide into flippancy
cater sloth
become a crone
hold court with words
use silence as a sword
speak with impunity
of miracles
