ijji Carole Berry’s life has been interwoven with Devizes since she moved to the market town more than two decades ago. She became engrossed in community activities, joined the town council, and enjoyed a period as musical director at Wiltshire-based SuperChoir. After retiring, Carole tentatively began to write and submitted a manuscript to major publishers Austin Macauley. She was astonished when they sent her a glowing and encouraging review and the offer of a publishing contract! Times of My Life – A Forest Gate Girl, out next week, focuses on her life leading up to living in Wiltshire. A second book, The Best of Times details her adventures since.
