Our guest last week was as before. Delightful, intelligent, down to earth, a mom, a rancher and a writer, all rolled into one neat package. Listen in as me and Bobbi give writer Nancy Quinn the business.
Nancy Quinn owns Seaside Books in Summerside, PEI. It used to be Avonlea Books until she bought it in 2019. These days, it's a warm, lively gathering place that reflects the character of its owner. I joined Nancy in the bookshop last December to talk about how she's changed the store, her relationships with books and patrons, and the role of business in giving back to the community. Stick around after the interview for this week's Progress Report about recording on location in the bookstore. And make sure to check the Written Stories page for an article about our interview.

Our interview with writer and naturalist artist, Nancy Quinn, last Thursday was a great lesson on how not to move to Montana. Joking aside, Nancy was a refreshing guest giving us the skinny on going from Urban to country life in a nanosecond, and her book, 'Go West Young Woman', was not only well written and chock full of tidbits, but also highly interesting and led to several out-loud chuckles. Give a listen, won't you? .
Nancy Quinn was born in Royal Oak, Michigan, but has lived in many areas of the country. She is an internationally known wildlife artist whose work is noted for its detail and accuracy, and she is the recipient of two World Wildlife Art Championship awards. Nancy has always had a love of animals and nature. After college, she worked as a conservation law enforcement duty officer for the state of Florida. She volunteered her spare time at wildlife rehabilitation centers, bringing their birds and reptiles into the schools to educate children of all ages. Over the years she has handled many domestic and exotic species, including cougars, leopards, and tigers, and always had interesting stories to tell about her encounters with wild animals. Upon leaving a suburban lifestyle in the metro Washington, DC area, to live in rural Montana, she discovered a new world of exciting and unusual adventures. Encouraged by friends and family alike, she wrote her first book, "Go West, Young Woman!" She now happily resides on a mountainside in Montana with her husband, daughters, dogs, and horses, where she continues to paint and write about her experiences living in the still wild west.
