Sea Stories

Authors Kevin Sites, The Ocean Above Me and Earl Swift, Chesapeake Requiem discuss their sea-related books (one novel, one non-fiction) at Bookmania! 2024.The book festival is one of the most dynamic in the country sponsored by The Martin County Library System in Florida, people who love books and support the authors who write them.

[This event was one of my personal favorites because everyone involved was an A+ from the indomitable organizer, Janette Noe to our panel moderator, the thoughtful and exceedingly well-read, Peggy Chittum. But I was thrilled to share the stage with the prolific and profound Earl Swift whose immersive journalistic feats are as legendary as his ‘load-bearing sentences.’]
