Author Talk and Book Signing

Author Talk and Book Signing: Dorothy Knight Burchett

Join Dorothy Knight Burchett at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 23, as she tells the story of how she was inspired to write her popular local newspaper column “On Sunny Lane.” Learn also how “Sweetheart” got his name.

Knight Burchett’s column began to appear in the New Castle News in February 2019. It then started to run in the Progress News in Emlenton and the Leader Times in Kittanning. The Herald in Sharon picked it up in 2021.

Knight Burchett has written two books: “Getting It All Together” is a compilation of her columns and “Miles and Miracles” is a journal of her solo trip out west and the adventures she had along the way. She says, however, “I wasn't really alone. The Lord was with me.”

The book also contains memories of happenings that were more than coincidence. Knight Burchett calls them little miracles and says we all have them.

Knight Burchett will do a book signing after her presentation. She will have books available for sale.

The event is free and open to the public.
