Author Ties into Pilot Point Roots
Longtime Pilot Point native Tammy Oveross returned to writing after a 50-year hiatus with “Cucumbers to Pickles,” a picture book and adapted poem she originally wrote in sixth grade that was published in The Post-Signal.
The book follows a little girl and her grandmother and focuses on the relationship between family.
“In all my years, I’ve never forgotten that poem,” Oveross said. “When I was talking to the publishing company, they said people love books about relationships, and that’s what I focus on. It’s not so much about making pickles as the relationship with grandparents. I decided that was a good place to start.”
