About
Asa gemini, I reserve the right to write about everything and anythingthat strikes my fancy. At the moment, that includes Urban Fantasy,Erotica, and Horror. I'm a stay-at-home mom of two beautiful toddlerswho routinely hijack my computer and shut it down. I also happen to bethe lucky wife of a lucky man who makes every wish of mine come true,whether it be homebaked cookies, three hours uninterrupted writingtime, or helping me with researching his favorite genre. I have thegreatest friends that make up our writing group, whom of whichencouraged me to get off my a**, stop making excuses, and write! Alas,I am the only one left to get published, but I was their beta readerand that takes up a lot of time. I ask that you read, vote, andsubscribe as even a little encouragement goes a long way.
My novel, FAE NIGHTSisentered in a contest and you can help my manuscript become 1 of 10 thatare viewed by a major publishing company. That would rock. Also, by allmeans, comment! I am far too nosy and it would soothe my curiosity.
My stories are inspired by world mythology, religion, history, folklore and fairy tales. Oh, and Monty Python.
Description
<p>A mythical jewel of a story… A true story told on a beach in Yucatan, A Shadow tells Stephanie's story but it was also the story of the golden time. Its nostalgia sings like cicadas in the heat.</p><p>An American ‘Under Milkwood’, this distilled novel of the Sixties evokes the sounds, music and optimism on the free-wheelin streets and parks of Coconut Grove. You can hear Bob Dylan still strumming acoustic; smoke a joint with Fred Neil; and Everybody’s Talkin is carried on the wind.</p><p>Stephanie, a young hairdresser living in lodgings finds herself pregnant. Refused help from her hard Catholic mother in New York, unable to abort her baby, she accepts the kindness of Miriam, her Jewish landlady, whose own barren life spills into compassionate assistance for the daughter she never had.</p><p>The poignancy of its ending, its generosity and acceptance, echoes the bitter disappointment of those of us who hoped for so much more, but who remember its joy, and its promise, as though untarnished by time.</p>
