You all know I lost two years of writing due to intense family drama. But now everything’s settled and I’m back! My stand-alone novel, We Did This Once Before, is at the editor’s and the cover designer is ready to jump on it when I say the word. The novel is about a midlife woman who agrees to move back in with her ailing mother but then realizes she’s going to have to fight all over again for her independence. The novel asks how much of ourselves we’re willing to give, how much of our lives must be sacrificed for others, and how do you decide? Launching soon!
