CALL ME BILL by Lynette Richards will be released September 13!

Terence Bay resident Lynette Richards is releasing her first graphic novel about the SS Atlantic disaster titled CALL ME BILL with a foreword by Prospect resident Emily Burton.

The SS Atlantic was looking for the Sambro Lighthouse, but had drifted off course, possibly due to the powerful pull of the Bay of Fundy currents. After the wreck, both Terence Bay light and Betty's Island light were placed in response.

Conundrum Press states: "In CALL ME BILL, Richards shares the remarkable life story of a tenacious adventurer who took huge risks to live an authentic life that others would have had difficulty imagining. Set against the backdrop of the worst maritime disaster before the Titanic, this story is an exploration of identity and radical imagination that echoes across generations."

When released you will be able to purchase it in various spaces such as:
