Library specialist writes historical novel
Heather Ridpath Pilcher, Library Specialist II at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, has written “Beloved Home,” a historical novel published in November 2009.
The story follows the life of a young girl, Jade, who after accidentally bumping her head, travels back in time and meets her great-grandmother, Ashton, as a girl the same age as Jade. The lead character’s time travel adventure was created around actual historical events that happened in Monroe, circa 1905.
The book is available at .
Pilcher earned her master’s degree in Library and Information Science from University of North Texas in Denton in 2008, and a bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts from ËÄÉ«AV in 2002. She has worked at the ËÄÉ«AV Library since March 2002.
