Authors Thor Ringler and Seth Jovaag join Barrett Memorial Library (Williams Bay) and Delavan Public Library in sharing their book, “MY LIFE, MY STORY”.

Over the last 12 years, writers with the My Life, My Story project at the Department of Veterans Affairs have interviewed over 10,000 veterans and written short stories about their lives. Each story was reviewed and edited by the veteran, and with their approval, added to their VA medical record. Any VA provider who is caring for that vet can easily find their story and read, in their own words, what matters to them, who matters to them, and why. 1,000 Words: Stories from the VA’s My Life, My Story Project is a book which shares the stories and photographs of 15 of those veterans.
