I just heard that my cousin (once removed) Jenny Oby has published a book about the Lakewood Theatre.
Many of you have read my Cornville post on Mohamad Al Karbi’s site
https://wordpress.com/post/mohamadkarbi.com/5258
This Theatre is nearby and is actually on the outskirts of the town I grew up in. In its heyday, many very famous stars went there to perform great plays. Jenny’s blog will give you another glimpse of Maine, this time from the old days.
I am so proud of Jenny and her accomplishment of becoming a published author. Wow! Here is a link to her blog:

Hey, Renata! I don’t have a WordPress site; I only have my personal website and blog (hosted by SquareSpace). . .that’s why you couldn’t find it on here! But thanks for visiting my other site and for following me on the other platforms. Looking forward to reading your blog!

Thanks I did go over to read about and read a page of her blog but I wasn’t sure about commenting thru the other social media platforms – baby steps with me and all that still :). Sounds like a unique and cool read!

Hahaha, Linda, I can’t believe you got my mom to comment on a blog! And, both of you, thanks for all your kind words and encouragement. I’m appointing Mom and Linda to be my official publicists! And when Linda writes her book, I’ll return the favor. . . 😉

Thanks, everyone, for your kind comments! I’ve received some questions about where to find my blog (it’s a little confusing because I do not host my blog on WordPress, but on my personal website [on a different platform called SquareSpace] instead). Here is the link to the blog feed on my website: https://www.jennyobywriter.com/lakewoodblog/ If you are interested in subscribing via email, please scroll to the bottom of that page, where you’ll find a “Subscribe” link. Simply enter your email, and you’ll get updates whenever I post (about twice a month). Thanks again, everyone! 🙂
