I've been writing for many years and have shared my work with my family. Several people have encouraged me to pursue a writing career, but the family and job seemed to leave little room for the work of finding an agent and publisher. Now that Prudence and I have abandoned corporate life for the Inn Keeping business, I've decided to step up again and see how to get my work published. With all of the self-publishing capabilities I've decided to use the internet as my vehicle for now. You will be able to see 15 pages of a book. If you like it you can purchase it on the Internet and it will be mailed to you. Thanks for taking an interest in my writing adventure.
This is a fictional account of a young girl Patience who has an experience similar to Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz and Alice in Alice in Wonderland. Patience is a bright young girl who is bored and unimpressed with school but loves her dog Daisy. On a cold miserable day Patience takes Daisy to the local Mall called Wonder Meadow where the adventure of her life begins.
Growing up in Northern California in the Sixties was a wonderful time for families and children. Recently I was laid up after shoulder surgery and had time when watching TV or reading wasn’t very interesting. But many memories and stories started to pour out while being laid up and I realized that a lot of who I am now comes from those experiences. I started writing to capture these moments, life-changing events and small vignettes of a life-style that probably doesn’t exist anymore.
