Thank you for visiting.
I have tried to envision what you might hope to learn about me as a person
and about my memoir, 'The Book of Anne'. As the memoir is my first
experience as a published author I can honestly tell you it is very humbling,
exciting and terrifying. More than once I thought about backing away from
writing the book. My age was a big factor. After all, what publisher sees a
profitable future representing a woman in her mid-eighties? Then it was the
realization that for the book to be honest I must divulge things about myself
and those I love that I might consider no one else’s concern. Thirdly I had no
idea where I would find the money to market the book.
However, at eighty-five what better do I have to do with my last years than to
help children? As far as baring my soul to everyone and their uncle it seems
of little importance compared to helping the children who have lost their
parents. And as for the third, I believe that if my message is important in God’
s scheme of things that He will help it reach the hands it should.
Your interest is very important. I believe it is you and the others who read
'The Book of Anne' who will help our country move ahead to solve this
national tragedy that is shaping our tomorrows.
Learn more about my alter-ego and me, 'The Book of Anne', how to contact
me, or how to purchase 'The Book of Anne' by clicking on the appropriate
button above. I have to admit my memoir is a Kleenex read; but I promise
loads of laughs and a happy ending as well.
