Today is the official release day for “Passing Rain” (available in ebook and paperback) and I’ve had the great pleasure of spending it with my wonderful Liz Graham and my fabulous Lindsey Graham. My heart is full.
In addition to release day, this is the day my beautiful, complicated, and brave Jessie (aka Rain) would have celebrated her 33rd birthday.
This is for you, Jess. Love you always.
Finished mine in one sitting. Couldn’t wait to get to the end of the story. I think Jessie would be proud of how the story was told and that you were able to tell it. I’m also so proud of you that you were able to accomplish it. Really love how the cover turned out. You are such a strong person and I really love that about you. You did great my friend!
I so appreciate your comments, Lynethia, and your friendship all these years.
I sure will my friend. I can hardly wait to read it. Take care!
Thank you, Fran. It’s available on Amazon in ebook and paperback.
Precious memories linger. Thank you for the tribute to a special love, Dorene.
Thank you, Jackie.
I look forward to reading it, Dorene.
Thanks, Susan. Hope all is well with you!
When the storm clouds gather ’round you
And heavy rains descend
Just remember that death is not the end
— Bob Dylan
Not since Dylan’s ‘Chronicles’ has a memoir so perfectly captured the true voice of the writer. Readers face a daunting task trying to find words which adequately describe how emotionally powerful and moving your book is. It reminds us all that giving without measure is the true face of love and remembrance.
“My mom’s a writer. She’s a writer.”
She’s still singing that, Dorene.
So, too, will those of us who find both laughter and tears in this beautiful memoir.
Thank you for your touching comments, Mike. I very much appreciate it.
Difficult to put down!! I have read a few chapters throughout the day. Thinking and sending love to you Dorene and your amazing daughters.
Thank you so much, Joani. Good to hear from you.
