Nancy VanArsdall
Welcome to author Nancy VanArsdall’s website!
Nancy VanArsdall always wanted to be an authoress and wrote her first five-chapter book at age ten. The Secret of the White Carnation (inspired by Nancy Drew) sadly was lost among the attic dustbunnies as was her aspiration, for all too soon, she surrendered to the social norms of her time: marriage and motherhood…until the years when those traditional norms began to be questioned and eventually, for her, unraveled.
The Thousandth Telling
Spanning nearly a century, The Thousandth Telling is the story of three generations of women each of whom must navigate the prevailing social norms as she strives to live an authentic life.
