Fran's interview on That Channel

Fran Edelstein
author, journalist
  
 

Welcome to my website!

Set to Music is my first book – a collection of seven short stories and the fruit of many encounters with people and places that have profoundly affected me, all marinated in a good dose of imagination, fantasy, humour and reflection. I wrote these stories to connect, entertain and challenge, and by all accounts from readers, it seems they are doing just that.

I’m a fiction writer with a past career in journalism. Over the years I’ve written a lot of children’s stories for my grand kids; now I’m writing them for their kids. I also create cartoons, on request, for autistic children under the signature, Story Solutions by Granny Frannie…not necessarily to solve, but to help a child comprehend, accept, and find their way through situations.

I am the wife of a man who keeps me laughing, the mother of three, and a grandmother in my late seventies. I am onto my first novel, which will give re-entrance to one of the characters in the lead story of Set to Music. I won’t tell you what it’s about; it will spoil the surprise. I’ll just say that, through music and the arts, for all nations of this world, is where peace might be found.

I am passionate about storytelling, cooking, painting, conversation and surprises. I love my thesaurus and my trampoline, in that order. I love people best.  I hope to keep you current on my website where I might share my experiences, confide a secret or even share a recipe with you!
