I tried publishing my 1st novel when I was 12yo. It took a few years...but my 3d, HER DAUGHTER, will be published in Jan 2026 by Black Rose Writing. (in between I wrote 8 nonfiction books, won awards, wrote a lot for newspapers & magazines etc)
For #WorldChildren'sDay today, please remember 1 of the less-known forms of child abuse--#ParentalAlienation when 1 parent gaslights the child/children against the other parent. It's painful, too widespread & the focus of my newest novel HER DAUGHTER #BookSky #families #writingcommunity

A fascinating tour behind-the-scenes at #LincolnCenter in #NYC today. Here's one sample, backstage at Alice Tully Hall. I'll post more on Instagram next week #hawthornewriter. #BookSky I love oddball cultural tours. What are your favorites?

My #bookclub split between liking & LOVING "Trust" by #HernanDiaz. Some were put off the finance jargon; some focused on the role of women. Me? Put me in the LOVING column for the incredible layering of narratives #booksky

Thanks for the opportunity: This is the real cover for my 3d #novel, HER DAUGHTER, about #Parental#Alienation (yes, sadly, it's a thing--a type of gaslighting) coming Jan. 22 from #BlackRoseWriting)

Congratulations to my friend #MaryAnnMcGuigan on her wonderful new collection "That Very Place"--beautiful, powerful, understated. #booksky #fiction.
