25 Years and Still in Love: A Celebration of Woonsocket

Emily Lisker is a writer, painter, and musician who has
lived in the city of Woonsocket for 25 years. 
Driving through on a whim, she fell in love with the mills, and after
moving here fell in love with the people and the hills. You may have seen her
on the sidewalk with her big yellow long-legged Lily-dog. She gets all of her
inspiration from walking around the city with Lily and then going home and
writing about the people she meets and the stories they tell her.  Emily's written portraits and snapshots,
called vignettes, are full of loving and poignant details of Woonsocket and its
people.
