Erin,
Good job on the book. I’m an ex-fisherman college graduate(Merrimack). Glad you had the opportunity to connect the way you did. Thanks for sharing the experience. Best of luck.

Hello Erin – When you were at the cross roads of writing and oysters I’m glad you chose writing. As for the oysters, it will make a super summer job for your children. Great book and a beatifully done narrative. Thank you.

I live on Virginia’s lower Eastern Shore and have friends whio raise oysters. I picked up your book so as to learn a little about the craft. I spent a few years in the culinary field and also worked clam and shrimp boats back in the 70′s. Now I’m a cop. Like you, I’ve done a few different things. I really enjoyed your book. It was much more than I expected. I look forward to more of the same excellence. Thanks for a nice read.

Thanks so much for your note, Jennifer! I really hope you do take the plunge – coming from the other end of it, I can tell you that it’s entirely worth it for the life experience alone. And I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the book. -Erin

Erin – I just finished your book last night and absolutely loved it. It gave me fascinating insight into the world of the oyster and the incredible hard work that goes into farming them. I’m telling everybody I know to read it. I’ve worked in the corporate world for 25 years and it was refreshing to read about the people who have decided to get out and do something with so much meaning and heart. I’ve been thinking about making a complete change, your book may have given me the courage to do it. Thanks! Jennifer
