– “I’ll take care of this, Honey.”

Eleanor and I dragged our stocky, dark, wooden desk chairs up to our door to peer over the open transom at the long hall.

Robin majored in English at The College of William and Mary. In “those days,” creative writing was absent from the heady curriculum, although Robin wrote poetry which was published in several lit magazines. After college, she taught high school English in Fairfax, Virginia. Creative writing was included in Robin’s classrooms. Robin has written two memoirs, both published by Pisgah Press, multiple short stories and essays, and, of course, poetry. A third book, a collection of all genres of Robin’s writing, is nearing completion. Robin and her husband live in Asheville, NC. www.robingaiser.com
