--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We are sisters, Valerie and Mary Behan and we share this website because in 2015
we wrote a memoir about our childhood in Ireland, Abbey Girls. 

We started writing at an early age. While we were at boarding school in Ireland
we had to write a letter home every week. The habit continued after we
emigrated, Mary to the United States and Val to Canada. Mary became a professor
of neuroscience at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Val a research
scientist with Agriculture and Agri-food Canada.

Our parents kept all of our letters! Mary found inspiration for her first novel,
A Measured Thread, in some of these, and Val is currently working on Letters to
Drogheda, a memoir based on over 30 years of writing home.
