A Goodreads user asked this question about
The Charm Bracelet:
I haven't read the book yet, and I intend to, but I wonder if any other readers have a slight problem with the author being male?
VIOLA SHIPMAN is a pen name for Wade Rouse, a popular, award-winning memoirist. Rouse chose his grandmother’s name, Viola Shipman, to honor the woman whose charm bracelet and family stories inspired him to write his debut novel, which is a tribute to all of our elders.

Viola Shipman, I'm in love with your response to this comment! This book sounded really good prior to me reading your response but now I'm even more intrigued!
