Mannix, Rota to speak on ‘Weathering Shame’ at Norway Library

NORWAY — Former WCSH6 weatherman Kevin Mannix and his wife, social worker Linda Rota, will speak on their book, ‘Weathering Shame,’ Tuesday, March 20, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at Norway Memorial Library, 258 Main St.
The couple share their life experiences, lessons, struggles and feelings resulting from growing up exposed to alcoholism, severe depression and suicide.

Through their book, written about their individual experiences with shame and stigma throughout their childhood and adult lives, their goal is for their audience and readers to benefit from their struggles, raise awareness and to be inspired and encouraged by their personal stories to embark on their own journey of self-discovery, recovery or awareness.
Copies of the book will be on sale the night of the program, hosted by Friends of Norway Memorial Library. The event is free and open to the public. Call 207-743-5309, ext. 1, or visit the library’s website www.norway.lib.me.us for more information.
