Linda Hitchcock

Native Virginian Linda Hitchcock and her beloved husband John relocated to a small farm in rural Kentucky in 2007. They reside in a home library filled with books, movies, music, love and laughter. Linda is a lifelong voracious reader and library advocate who volunteers with the local Friends of the Library and has served as a local and state FOL board member. She is a member of the National Book Critic’s Circle, Glasgow Musicale, and DAR. Her writing career began as a technical and business writer for a major West Coast-based bank followed by writing real estate marketing and advertising. Linda wrote weekly book reviews for three years for the now defunct Glasgow Daily Times as well as contributing to Bowling Green Living Magazine, BookBrowse, the Barren County Progress newspaper, Veteran’s Quarterly and SOKY Happenings, among others. She also served as volunteer publicist for several community organizations. Cooking, baking, jam making, gardening, attending cultural events and staying in touch with distant family and friends are all thoroughly enjoyed. It is a joy and privilege to write for BookTrib.com.
