Meet the Authors: Cheryl Blaydon

Another one of Books in Boothbay’s favorite authors returns September 11, 2021 – Cheryl Blaydon. Her latest book was released in May of 2020  Dancing at the Colony  two women, two generations, two weddings revealed through the lives of strong Maine women.

An artist and author, Cheryl was born in upstate New York. She attended business school in Albany, and after many years in the business sector, she ventured to St. Croix where she eventually came to own a small blueprinting and architectural supply business. During that time, Cheryl discovered an island that begged to be painted. Twenty years later, she moved to Florida where she was able to attend a small art school. Her move to Maine was spurred by both the idea of painting the Maine coast as well as developing a genealogical chart about her paternal Maine ancestors. Soon, all that research became the catalyst for writing novels.

Meet Cheryl and 30+ authors at Books in Boothbay on September 11, 2021. On-site book sales benefit the Boothbay Harbor Memorial Library and Boothbay Harbor Railway Village.
