The Work of Edie Clark

*******************************************************

Welcome visitors.

On this site you can find a sampling of articles I have written, an archive of the Mary's Farm essays that I write for Yankee Magazine and a selection of my books for sale, which you can order with the click of a link. You can also see a listing of talks I'll be giving over the next few months, an up-to-date bio, news of upcoming workshops, a bibliography of all the articles I've written since 1978, and a selection of photographs I've taken from time to time on the farm.

I hope you enjoy what you find here. Do let me hear from you if you have any suggestions, thoughts or complaints. Thank you so much for visiting. Over the years I’ve come to realize that what matters more than anything, more than the publishers, more than the editors, more than the checks they pay me, what matters most are my readers.

I frequently give talks and workshops. The topics of my talks range from readings from my books, a talk about what it's like writing from my home, a prepared talk about New Engand food/Saturday Beans, and a prepared talk called "New England: Myth or Reality," which takes on the nature of this place called New England. Is it still the place that is so firmly lodged in our subconsciousness, a place conjured with the help of Wallace Nutting, Norman Rockwell, Robert Frost and Yankee Magazine? Please click on "Appearances," above, for an updated calendar. Contact me if you would like to schedule a talk.

For the past nineteen years, I have produced a monthly column for Yankee magazine. The column is now known as Mary’s Farm, though at one time it was titled The Garden at Chesham Depot. I’ve posted a sampling of this column in the "Mary's Farm" section of this site. As well, there is an opportunity to subscribe to Mary's Farm as an e-mail newsletter, at no charge. Click on "Mary's Farm" above.

At the present time, I am acting as my own agent. I would be interested in syndication of a new column, perhaps of a slightly different nature. In short, I’m eager for new work and ready to take on any challenge laid before me. I am interested in writing assignments for books and magazines as well as any editorial work, all of which I can handle capably and with speed.
