Claudia Johnson Severin lives on a farm in Southeast Nebraska, where the Severin family homesteaded in 1869. History is literally in the soil where her house stands. The land was once home to cows, horses, chickens, and children. They have all moved on, but she stayed to tell the tales.She grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska, in the Eastridge neighborhood. She went back to her high school twirler days for the Twirler Quartet series. Like her main characters, she found hours of practice together developed friendships which led to many adventures outside of school.Like Yvonne, she graduated from the University of Nebraska with a journalism degree. She also worked at Lincoln Telephone Company. Like Debbie, she met her husband at a dance. Like Nancy, some of her boyfriends chose a military career during the Vietnam conflict. Like Linda, she never wanted to be pigeon-holed.All four books have been published in the Twirler Quartet series: Catch It Spinning, Twirling Fire, Learning To Twirl, and Spinning Sideways. She previously wrote Her Side of History-Finding My Foremothers' Footprints, an anthology of historical fiction about four of her family's female ancestors.Writing about past decades gives her a chance to rewrite history and gives the characters a chance to benefit from lessons learned in the meantime. She loved the 1960s but wouldn't trade her smartphone for a teen line or her SUV for her old Volkswagen Beetle.
"""Linda and Tom have to address some very difficult issues that were not found to be appropriate in that time. The love that allows them to overcome their issues in a positive way and keep their family in a strong standing is an uplifting story to behold. Such an amazing series to read."" ""Spinning Sideways is Book 4 in the Twirler Quartet Series that explores the lives of 4 friends that grew up in the 60's. This is Linda's story. How will Linda deal with love, the consequences of not being fully prepared when she dives headfirst into a relationship that she thought she wanted, but as it turned out, her heart was going to take her in a much different direction. This series is a refreshing look as we follow along with each of the 4 girls as they take their journey of self-discovery, awareness and acceptance. Getting through adolescence and adulthood in the 60's and 70's. A realistic view of what is was like to grow up in a time when being different was not always tolerated or accepted."" ""The book was well written and very interesting topic. I love how you can feel yourself being in 1968. Not only does this book have well-developed characters but it Isn't your typical love story either. Overall, this book is passionate, romantic and it's an engaging read."""
