A major influence in my life was an early exposure to reading. My mother read to me as a young child and when I was old enough to venture out on my own, the Westerly Public Library in Westerly, R.I. became a very special place of influence. I could sit and read for hours. Growing up with seven other syblings didn't allow for quiet, but the library did. It also provided an escape to another world. I can honestly say that reading is the foundation of who I am today. Everything I know comes from reading. I will never tire of exhorting people to read and to make sure their children read. Get them out from in front of that TV and into a book!

Priscilla's Web Page
www.priscillapaul.com is a great site, if I say so myself. It includes information about my writing, my genealogy (Mayflower Descendant), a holiday page and lots of links. Visit and have fun!

Mostly family related. A small part dedicated to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, my fourth cousin. I guess this writing thing runs in the family!
