Ellen Mary Lewin retired in 2017 after thirty years of teaching mainly English to speakers of other languages in an urban community college in Minnesota. She has always been fascinated by ghosts, spirits, and reincarnation. She also enjoys walking over six miles daily, learning about weather phenomena and the changing seasons, speaking Spanish, vegan eating, writing and editing, and investigating how social media shapes the world we live in. She likes just about any activities that include her daughters and granddaughters, and is slowly figuring out what the world of retirement looks like. 20 Ghostly Tales from Mexico and the U.S.A. is her first ebook project.
