dusting her own books as she earned a living cleaning houses, and what she learned about writing
from that humbling experience. Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild, says of A Broom of One's Own,
"Each essay is an engaging, well-written, funny and poignant journey into Nancy Peacock's generous
spirit, humble heart and incisive mind."Nancy runs writing groups for women and for 16 years has
