I enjoy my copy of NC Field and Family and am excited to get the chance to read about a fellow North Carolinian and her growing up years! North Carolina is where I still live and I loved my rural upbringing and still love living in rural North Carolina!
I live in swain county and my grandmother was a Duncan. I think Benjamin Duncan was her grandfather from frosty bottom, tn. He was the father of Juanah duncan.
As a native North Carolinian, and a writer myself, I would truly enjoy reading Ms. Duncan’s book. We have so many talented people in our State! Reading others’ books and writing my short stories, poems and working on a couple of novel ideas are my passions as a 75 year old NC woman who trys to live each day with love, joy, and passion.
I was raised in Lake Lure, NC near by Marion. Happy for you to be able to write this book!
I like the magazine Field and Family. I have enjoyed reading all about North Carolina.
I was born and raised in Washington, North Carolina. My parents, grandparents and
great grandparents were from Washington and the surrounding areas. My grandfather
was Edmund Hoyt Harding and he truly loved North Carolina. He was an after dinner speaker and traveled all over the United States and beyond.
I would love to read the book, “All We Have Loved”
