LORETTA (NEPIL) JOHNSON graduated with a BA degree in History and later added a 5th Year Certification in Secondary Education. Farm Stories - A Fading Dream is her debut book. Her second book will preview in 2018 and will be based on 50-year old love letters, written by her boyfriend (now husband) when he was invited to attend an all-black university in Atlanta in 1967. As a white man, he broke many barriers, while he graduated from a two-year Masters Program in one year. Loretta currently lives in Normandy Park, Washington, with her husband.
