Sue Fagalde Lick

I'm a full-time writer/musician/dog mom. My books include Stories Grandma Never Told: Portuguese Women in California, The Iberian Americans, Azorean Dreams, Freelancing for Newspapers, Shoes Full of Sand, Unleashed in Oregon, Up Beaver Creek, Seal Rock Sound, Gravel Road Ahead, The Widow at the Piano, Childless by Marriage, and Love or Children: When You Can't Have Both.

New in 2024: No Way Out of This: Loving a Partner with Alzheimer's (memoir); Dining Al Fresco with My Dog (poetry), and Blue Chip Stamp Guitar (poems), and Between the Bridges.

In addition to writing, I sing, play piano, guitar, and mandolin and perform here and there. That means I have short nails and calluses on the fingers of my left hand, but the music is totally worth it.

I love history, dogs, books, hiking, hot tubs, cookies, and online jigsaw puzzles. Also, raviolis, potato salad, and cake.
