"Carrot Island" by Nancy Tilly
– we wandered about
“The water looked lazy and safe, the day bright and full of opportunity.”
Nancy Tilly’s early years in deep South Atlanta received welcome corrections from the University of North Carolina and a ten-year exile in Chicago where she taught college kids. Marriage to Eben Tilly took her back to Chapel Hill and a writing life. Her novel Golden Girl, from FSG, won a prize. Tilly’s memoir Rebel Belle: The Making of a Narcissist is available on Amazon. She retired to Colorado. Her young adult novel, The Island Summer, we be release in spring 2021.
