Abstract
A Q&A with Peggy Rowe, who has attended the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop three times and has published her first book at the age of 80. When she self-published her memoir, About My Mother: True Stories of a Horse-Crazy Daughter and Her Baseball-Obsessed Mother, it sold 10,000 copies in three weeks. A second edition has been acquired by Forefront Books and will be distributed by Simon and Schuster in November.
