As an editor, mentor, and friend, Luci Shaw has enjoyed deep creative partnerships with many writers, perhaps none so special as her relationship with the late Madeleine L’Engle. Despite differences, the two animated each other’s work in important ways. They coauthored three books—WinterSong, Friends for the Journey, and A Prayer Book for Spiritual Friends—and Luci suggested and then edited Madeleine’s seminal treatise on faith and writing, Walking on Water. Madeleine’s granddaughters, Charlotte Jones Voiklis and Léna Roy, have known Luci for years as a close friend of their family. Here they interview her about the role of community in the life of a writer and what it takes to forge and sustain friends for the long haul.

Charlotte Jones Voiklis and Lena Roy have written a new biography about their grandmother, Newbery Award winning writer Madeleine L’Engle called "Becoming Madeleine." They share stories about the woman who wrote 'A Wrinkle in Time."  

“A Wrinkle in Time” was first published back in 1962, but its impact is long lasting with no signs of waning. Even though the latest attention has been given to the book because of its film adaptation directed by Ava Duvernay, many longtime literary fans of Engle frequent events dedicated to readings, in-depth analysis, and general fangirling/fanboying/fanhearting. Léna Roy and Charlotte Jones Voiklis, PhD are the stars of our coverage of this panel held by Pen America in Strand Bookstores this past March.
