Author Leanne Wood
Local author Leanne Wood is preparing to launch her fifth novel The Belonging at Orange City Library on Thursday 15th August at 5.30pm.
“It is different from my other novels,” Leanne said. “Everyone experiences loss, experiences grief. This is about that grief and loss, hope and love, faith and miracles. I love writing stories about life and on subjects’ people can relate, stories that evoke emotion and take readers on a journey and I believe this story delivers on these points.”
