About

Born in small-town Ontario, I published my first book at the age of six  with the help of my elementary school librarian and a box of crayons.

I am a voracious reader and the farthest thing from a genre-snob, loving everything from High Fantasy to Chick Lit.

I currently reside in a quaint small town outside of Toronto with my husband, two beautiful girls,  and an exhausting brood of four-legged creatures.


I am working on the sequel to Anathema,  to be released in 2012

Description

Laura Hoopes takes you along as she tries to enter science in the 1960's in the post-Sputnik science education frenzy, only to find doors closed to women.  She persists, makes a career of molecular gerontology and insists on making space for marriage and children in her life.  This inspiring read says, "Yes, you can," to women who have dreams of their own.
