Hello local lit fans! I apologize for not adding articles in this series lately. I spent my summer reading and reviewing books for Lucci’s List, and now I think I need a higher strength reading glasses. I have also been busy putting the final touches on my new historical fiction girl-power-packed novel, “Watch City: Waltham Watch,” which is being published this month. I appreciate the messages and emails wondering what in the world of local literature was up! Ask and you shall receive: here is the newest edition of “Literally Waltham.” See you around!
