They are not dead—and neither are their stories. Their memory offers a mirror—and a map—for the living. With every grave I study, I toast those who came before us. As a literature professor and cemetery historian, my work combines my love of words and the stories of those from the past. Welcome! -Sharon Pajka

Cemetery Salon
As part of my book release, I hosted a Cemetery Salon in the same style as a literary salon where like-minded women gather to discuss a specific topic. For this salon event, the topic was Women & Cemeteries. In the true salon fashion, I wanted an open discussion about the topic and we certainly had one. The recording is an hour but we went longer than that.
