About the Author

60-year-old Canadian, divorced twice but I have three adult children, who I love deeply. I also have 2 sweet granddaughters, one 6, the other new 2. I come from a family of eight, four girls, two boys. My father was a World War Two veteran. He passed away about 15 years ago. My mother, who is 86, is constantly on the go. Most of my siblings are A type personalities. Ambition in me did not show up until a few years ago when I finally began writing this book. It had been rattling around inside my head for a 28 years, in various forms. I have always liked writing ever since public school. I mine a disability pension at the moment due to epilepsy and bipolar mood disorder. I surprised myself by actually finishing this first novel.
