Bridget Watkins, a Lovington alumna, was at the Lovington Public Library for a book signing. She shared about her life growing up in Sullivan and Lovington and the inspiration for her book. The book “Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones but Words Will Never Hurt Me..or Will They?” identifies how both fellow children and parents can be cruel and how through her experiences, she came to rely on faith to handle rejection and other problems in life.
