Editor’s note: The following information was provided by Peggy Race.

Join local Whitewater resident and author Peggy Race on Wednesday, August 25, at 7:00 p.m. for a virtual book launch.

Peggy’s first memoir, Desiree, The Music Of My Soul, has been released by Black Rose Writing!

The book launch event will be hosted by Kathie Giorgio, author and studio owner of the AllWriters’ Workplace and Workshop in Waukesha. Peggy started writing the book in the AllWriters’ Once-A-Month Write-A-Book Workshop, and she finished it in coaching with an AllWriters’ faculty member.

Peggy will read from the book and there will be a Q & A discussion.

Here is the description of the book:
Staunch and rooted to her childhood values, Peggy engages in a battle to overcome a failed marriage, the sudden, heartrending loss of her second husband and her own self-doubts. While sandwiched between each layer of uncertainty, Peggy fights her way forward through the love of her dogs.

Amid personal tragedy, Peggy’s life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Desiree, a rescued Hurricane Katrina dog. Fueled by the serendipitous connection, Peggy deploys an unending passion for answers as she searches for purpose. As Peggy unravels Desiree’s significance in her life, she looks beyond the confines of loss and discovers her true self.

Desiree: The Music of My Soul is a poetic and soul-stirring love story which captures one woman’s journey of strength and self-discovery that transcends grief and loss. Filled with hope and inspiration, Desiree: The Music of My Soul, symbolizes the resilience of the human spirit.
