Southeast Features Atlanta Novelist
Atlanta novelist, Darlene F.
Wofford will be greeting guests and signing her new novel,
"Edgewise: An Assignment to Remember" Saturday, June 30th

Georgia in Buford, GA (I-85N, exit 315).
(PRWEB) June 26, 2007 –
Atlanta native, Darlene F. Wofford, author of "Edgewise: An
Assignment to Remember," continues her summer book tour
Saturday, June 30 at Waldenbooks in Buford, Georgia.
Waldenbooks is near Belk’s on the upper level of the Mall of
Georgia, 3333 Buford Drive in Buford, GA 30519, (I-85N, exit
315), and their phone number is 678-482-2923. Occupying
more than 2.2 square feet with more than 225 stores on 180
acres, the Mall of Georgia is the largest shopping mall in
the state of Georgia, and second largest in the entire
Southeastern United States. The author will be greeting
guests at the front of the store and signing her novel from
1:00-5:00 p.m.
"Edgewise: An Assignment to
Remember" is a novel, however based on true events in the
author’s life. This is the first of three novels in her
"Edgewise" series, with the second, "Seven Years 'Til
Sunrise," scheduled for release next year, followed by the
third in 2009. The
term "Edgewise" is used to describe the book's protagonist
as a shattered young woman in an edgewise state of
mind--driven to the edge by back-to-back traumas.
However, "An Assignment to Remember" is not as much
about the life-altering events, as it is about her
recovery from post-traumatic stress disorder. Told
through the eyes of the author’s alter ego, the
inspiring story is of healing progression, and the
prevailing strength of unconditional love between two
people.
To quote Page One Lit
literary newsletter, "Wofford is a wonderful writer whose
personality and charisma is vivid in every word and sentence
in her new book, 'Edgewise: An Assignment to Remember.' This
is the most honest, heart-inspiring book of the year.
'Edgewise' is an example of how one woman wants to live in
the past but realizes she can't. It is about confronting
reality. It is about emotions. It is about communication. It
is about life." Wayne Cunningham’s review for Foreward
Magazine describes Wofford as “a natural-born storyteller.”
Producer, Denna Shelton sums it up nicely on Barnes and
Noble's web site in her review, "Edgewise took me on an
emotional journey of laughter, sorrow and hope."
If the name Darlene Wofford
rings a bell it may be because she and Carl, her husband of
40 years are both native Atlantans, and along with sons
Kenneth and Cory, have been Woodstock/ Acworth residents for
35 years. She has been in the mortgage finance industry for
20 years, and every Saturday morning in 2006 from 10-11:00
a.m., she co-hosted an hour-long Atlanta radio talk-show
called "Your Inner Voice." She has also been interviewed
recently regarding her novel on several Atlanta radio
stations.
