Waterside Villas hosting book signing by Monroe resident Bettie Linke

By Kris Carr
FEBRUARY PRESENTATION: MEET THE AUTHOR, BETTIE LINKE
NEW BOOK RELEASE: THAT’S THE SPIRIT
Monroe Township author Bettie Linkeannounces the recent publication of THAT’S THE SPIRIT, a non-fiction release published by Xlibris Corporation. 
Bettie Linke, formerly of Jamesburg, has put her nostalgic collection of works into an anthology. Her biography shows her creativity and storytelling ability to share life and growing up in central Jersey, long before the New Jersey Turnpike or Exit 8A was a twinkle in anyone’s eye. She has put a touch of humor in down-home living back on the map beginning as early as the 1930’s.
Her chapters show what you did and how you coped in a tightly knit family homestead during the war era of the early 40’s, and the simplistic living approaching the fantastic 50’s.
An Inspiration Section and many of the author’s essays brings on personal thoughts of the writer and just maybe the reader will be inclined to read them more than once. 
The author will be at Waterside Villas on February 6th, 2011 at a Meet the Author presentation at 2:00 p.m. She will personally sign books for those interested.
