A big shout-out of thanks to Dan Harrington for having me join him at two recent events. I was thrilled to be part of his Larchmont Remembered presentation at the Exeter Library on June 27 and then the Woonsocket Library on July 18. For both shows, Dan did an amazing job of retelling the details of the tragic demise of those aboard the Larchmont when she sank on February 11—my birthday!—in 1907, off the coast of Block Island. I followed Dan with a discussion of how an author like me takes historical information and makes it into a work of historical fiction such as my novel Frozen Voices, which chronicles the lives of four real-life passengers aboard the ill-fated Larchmont.
Here is Dan’s schedule of future Larchmont Remembered presentations. If you want to hear a spellbinding account of the “Titanic of New England,” see one of Dan’s shows. I just might be there, too!
