Writers Forum: The Writers Within

Jeanne Blasberg is the author of Eden, winner of the Beverly Hills Book Awards for Women’s Fiction and finalist for both the Benjamin Franklin Award for Best New Voice in Fiction and the Sarton Women’s Book Award for Historical Fiction. Eden was released in May 2017 by She Writes Press. After graduating from Smith College, Jeanne embarked on a career in finance. Even as she worked primarily with numbers, she always had an interest in writing. She made stops on Wall Street, Macy’s, and wrote case studies at Harvard Business School before turning seriously to fiction. She has kept a journal throughout her life, eventually taking inspiration from her childhood writings to pen Eden. Jeanne is the founder of the Westerly Memoir Project as well as a board member of the Boston Book Festival. She is a student and board member of Grub Street, one of the country’s pre-eminent creative writing centers where she wrote and revised her second novel, The Nine (She Writes Press August 2019.)

Many thanks to the Colonial Dames @whprescotthouse Many thanks to the Colonial Dames @whprescotthouse for hosting our monthly Backyard Adventures event last Friday Eve where we were given a tour of the beautiful historic home they call their headquarters and a look at some of their favorite artifacts in their 7,000 piece costume collection. Prescott House was designed in 1808 by noted Federal architect Asher Benjamin, who influenced building styles throughout Beacon Hill, and its history spans the evolution of Boston through the 19th century. 📸 pc @laurelberninteriors

She has been a licensed RE agent for decades and has served as Compassion New England’s chief visionary and Director of all Operations for 9 years. During her tenure CNE has added two of the Community programs that currently serve the Boston area as well as Metrowest. Compassion New England has a simple approach to doing good: create a beautiful place to display the items you donate that are ready for a new home, sell them. Use the money to do good things in our community. Local need. Local aid.

Cheri has an amazing team helping to daily change lives through the 3 programs CNE offers to our community. CNE operates 2 crisis care centers, one in Mattapan and one in Mendon as well as an incredible program for special needs students and adults that offers vocational opportunities and friendship opportunities. The newest edition to the CNE community care is Room in the City, a housing option for families facing a medical crisis. Our stores fund the overhead so we can do this at no charge to families. Cheri is honored to tell the story of the power of community good that has created hope and help.
