WEIRTON - An area native who has contributed numerous times to the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series of inspirational books will host a discussion and signing event at the Mary H. Weir Public Library.

Nancy Ostinato is a Weirton native who now lives in the area part-time. She is a professional playwright, with a writing among more than 100 included in the latest in the book series.

"My true story about an amazing coincidence and unexpected connection I discovered to the house I bought here in Weirton was published in their newest book, entitled 'Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles and Other Wonders,'" she said. "It is a collection of 101 true stories about unexpected miracles, answered prayers, coincidences, dreams, and things we just can't explain."

The signing is set for 7 p.m., Nov. 10 at the Mary H. Weir Public Library, in the lower floor activity room.

There is no charge to attend the event, but copies of the book will be available for purchase at $16.99 each.

Ostinato will discuss her story as well as her path to writing

"The Chicken Soup for the Soul books are quite popular and are published in 43 languages in over 100 countries," she said. "I thought this particular book in the series would be of special interest to the local community since my story is about a house in Weirton and events that took place here."
