Serving Our Seniors Magazine: Jan - Mar 2022

Mila Kette, 63, who lives in Perkins Twp. wrote her first novel, “Finding Cristiana.” The story is tale of two people finding love and is set in the exotic city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in the early 1920s. It includes mystery, romance, chivalry, bravery, kidnapping, matchmaking, blackmail and a unique duel. She said it is funny, with a drop of mystery and it has a diverse cast of characters. She credits the encouragement of her husband, Terry, for this accomplishment. Mila writes under the pen name of Emilia Rosa and is composing a sequel. The book can be purchased on Amazon (paperback, large print, ebook). Or you can buy it by contacting Mila, directly at milakette@att.net, or via Instagram, Facebook or Goodreads. She is a positive image of what living in later life can be. Her advice for anyone who is thinking about becoming a writer is this, “Start writing. A finished book is a marvelous feeling!” Eda Roggins, 48, who lives in Sandusky, had been writing poetry since she was in her 20’s. She has always wanted to be a writer. In 2015 she wrote her first mystery, entitled Strong Motive, under her pen name of KC Turner. She has since written two sequels, Strong Alibi and Strong Conviction. All three books include an overarching mystery with Elizabeth Strong as the protagonist, until the final book. The digital books are available on Amazon, Kobo, Google Play and Apple I-books. The first one is a free download. The other two are $4.99/each. Hard copies are available on Amazon and at Barnes & Noble for approximately $14.00 each.
