Chatting with Sherri

Chatting With Sherri welcomes author; Elaine Schroller! Elaine Schroller writes about love, loss, and redemption experienced by Australian, American, and French characters during WWI and WWII. DARE NOT TELL is the story of Joe Parker, an Australian WWI vet, and his American wife Sophie, a WWI nurse. It begins with Sophie and Joe’s chance meeting in 1916 Paris and chronicles their relationship through thick and thin up to the threshold of WWII. THE BRAVEST SOLDIERS is set in Australia and the South West Pacific Area during World War II and explores how the women who wait at home must be the bravest soldiers. The book features Sophie and Joe, their sons, visitors from the US, plus a new romance and a trio of children whom life has treated very unfairly. Elaine is currently writing the next chapter in Sophie and Joe's story to discover the truth about what happened to Joe’s brother Robbie, who was declared ‘Missing, presumed dead’ in April 1917. She was an oil brat, and attended high schools in Algeria, England, Texas, and Lebanon. Her degree is in History, which gave her the perfect training for researching specific places and events in DARE NOT TELL and THE BRAVEST SOLDIERS. She has traveled to all but one of the countries in the books and visited all the sites where the stories take place, some more than once. For many years she has lived in Bellaire, Texas where she and her husband raised their son and had multiple rescue cocker spaniels underfoot. She's a member of the Historical Novel Society and the Women's Fiction Writers Association and hopes you will love reading her books as much as she loved writing them.
