Edith Shay, Chapter 5

Katherine Lunden's hands are addicted to ink. Growing up in the 1860s in the woods of Wisconsin, she read every newspaper she can find and dreams of one day experiencing life outside of her small logging town. Then one day she sees a chance and grabs it. Catching a train to Chicago with nothing more than her satchel and abandoned suitcase bearing the name "Edith Shay," Katherine sets off on the adventure of a lifetime.

I'm 72.
This story calls up feelings from when I was a young adult making my way with the enormous cohort of baby boomers. You've captured that time of urgency.

Happy to hear another chapter of this, I’ve missed your stories!
