Grace Untethered: And Other Stories

This short story collection has a common thread of women finding their place in this world after leaving or losing a loved one. They are simple stories with topics including abandonment, motherhood, and love affairs amid sickness, death, and sometimes just the circumstances of life. In the title story, "Grace Untethered," a young woman discovers a long-lost birth mother who is on the brink of death herself. In "Absence," a subtle and unknown desire to begin life again surfaces for the protagonist. In "Bangkok," a woman searches for the family of her recently deceased mother, and in "Cake" (nominated for best online short story of the year), a woman decides to take things into her own hands for the sake of her emotional freedom. I hope you enjoy the stories and find a common thread to some of them in your own life. And all of the artwork is by my daughter, Jennifer. She is quite the artist in her own way. Enjoy!
