Honored to have you here and great to know that Bowser will get her due in Disunion. My blog was “aimed” at Elizabeth Varon and was only a very gentle reproach. It was a really nice column as was yours–I’m enjoying Disunion greatly.

I wrote a post about Richmond for the Disunion blog last week, and I promise–there will be more to come, and yes Mary Bowser will be represented.

Thanks for calling for her to be recognized.

Regards,
Lois

Clearly she’d make a fantastic subject for a novel, film or both. Cool stuff!
