Megan Schreiber-Carter is a third-generation native of Elk County, PA, and a career writer. She’s spent much of her career in Washington, D.C.. Her clients include—a national, news-wire service; Discovery Neworks; and, National Geographic. Megan has taught for—American University, George Washington University, the University of the District of Columbia, and The International Center for Language Studies. She also taught the little people as a Calvert Home-School teacher, when her child was in grade school. Now that her child is grown, Megan spends much of her time in the Elk County home her family has owned for 90 of the 100 years it has stood among the remains of a turn-of-the-1900s Boomtown. For WCoNA, she will read from her new short story, about the tall tales and telling truths told in rural Elk County from the late 1870s to the late 1970s. The story, called “The Great Aunt Alice Collection,” is available—electronically, in print, and as a recording—from major booksellers. Megan joins us, for our WCoNA LIVE! Reading Series, from that same, old, Elk County house, in which the story is set.
