Step behind the pages with award-winning author Jill G. Hall, creator of the Anne McFarland Series, as she reveals the fascinating research and creative process behind her bestselling novel, On a Sundown Sea. Discover the extraordinary story of clairvoyant Katherine Tingley as she strives to establish a utopian Theosophical community, Lomaland, brought to life through rare archival photos and Jill’s behind-the-scenes insights. A book signing follows.

Jill G. Hall is the author of the award-winning Anne McFarland series about women searching for their place in the world, connected by vintage finds.

Hall’s poems and personal narratives have appeared in a variety of publications and on her blog Crealivity, the art of practicing a creative lifestyle. Her tenure as an educator spanned over twenty years, incorporating the arts along the way. She holds a doctorate from Northern Arizona University and is an instructor and past board president at San Diego Writers, Ink. She also practices yoga, loves to garden, and enjoys spending time in nature. A native San Diegan, she resides near the Lomaland property. To learn more about her, go to http://www.jillghall.com.
