Farmhouse on the Edge of Town by Lew-Ellyn Hughes - Islandport Press | MAINE AUTHOR

Lew-Ellyn Hughes dreams of leaving city life and finding a place where she can see her beloved Maine wilderness from her window each morning. Her dreams finally come true when she finds a nineteenth-century farmhouse for sale in Stratton, an idyllic town nestled in between lakes and mountains. She decides to turn it into Diamond Corner, a cozy, five-room bed-and-breakfast, sharing her love of Maine with visitors from all over the world. Farmhouse on the Edge of Town is a collection of heartwarming and humorous stories from fifteen years of owning the bed-and-breakfast that features a cast of hardy Mainers, colorful guests, and lovable family, as Lew-Ellyn juggles their wants and needs with her trademark humor and insight. From opening up a bakery in her kitchen to painting her house to shoveling snow, her stories will delight anyone who’s ever spent time in a small town.

Lew-Ellyn Hughes is an award-winning newspaper columnist and author who spent her childhood summers on Moosehead Lake. In 2001, Lew-Ellyn left her job as a nurse in Bangor and bought a 1890s farmhouse in Stratton, where she opened the five-room Diamond Corner Bed & Breakfast. There, she chronicled her experiences as she learned how to run an inn, open a bakery, and fall in love with the small town and its people. “Away with Words”, Lew-Ellyn’s newspaper column, is an eight-time winner of the Maine Press Association’s Better Newspaper Contest. She currently lives in Greenville.
