Carolyn Schwartz taught third grade students in public elementary schools, was a piano teacher, and managed real estate property for many years. After raising four kids and facing the proverbial ‘empty nest,’ she reinvented herself as an author of creative non-fiction, then as a travel journalist. She has always had an unquenchable thirst for travel, both the physical kind and the kind that takes place in her daytime fantasies and nocturnal dreams. She lives with her husband of sixty-two years, with whom she shares twelve grandkids, in Pittsboro, North Carolina and in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.

Book Details
FROM THE AUTHOR OF NEARING EIGHTY: AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF AN UNREMARKABLE BUT DAMNED GOOD LIFE
A life well-lived includes triumphs and turning points plus challenges and provocations as well. Each are to be celebrated or accepted with grace as they happen, then preserved in writing for others, should recollections begin to fade. In AS I LOOK AROUND, the author shares milestones and memories of subjects close to her heart—family, friends, travels and traditions; makes observations about her past and present life experiences; then lets her fancy take hold by fabricating a few fictional short stories just for fun.
