Not everyone who writes gets why Ernest Hemingway or John Steinbeck were such revered authors, but Anita Waggoner completely understands what makes a good storyteller. I wish she had become an author before her first book in 2010. Then again, all her life experiences were important for her to pen her successful works. A good storyteller must capture the reader on the very first page. She does, and then she goes on to produce a captivating plot with intriguing characters. She creates early on the themes with which she deals consistently and uses direct dialogue to develop her characters and their actions. Her vocabulary portrays vivid descriptions of her surroundings, and she makes the reader feel right there where the action is taking place. Everything she writes about can be visualized. Anita has amazing talent as a writer. She has not only published novels but short stories and books of inspirational quotes and self-help. She has more work out there than what Amazon has listed...a prolific writer in such a brief time. She is a woman to be admired!" Anita Waggoner was born in a small town in north central Washington state. She attended business-college in the Seattle area and worked for several years as a paralegal where she perfected her writing skills. Anita Waggoner presently resides in Couer D Alene, Idaho. Anita wrote and published her first novel Farewell to Freedom in 2010 after she sold her Freedom, Oklahoma ranch and returned to her home in Arizona. She writes stories and screenplays with a modern-day western flair. Her books Freedom, Cowgirl Logic, The Life Lies and Legend of a Gambling Man and Huckleberry Ridge are all available on Amazon. Anita’s stories are based somewhat on personal life experiences. Her screenplay Freedom was a winner in the 2021-2022 Dreamcatcher screenplay awards for Best Debut Filmmaker.
