Mother of two. I am an avid reader, sometimes writer, everyday technology master. I am an index of movie and television actors. I win every game of six degrees of Kevin Bacon. It's funny cause I love Bacon (not Kevin just bacon).
The story is told mostly from the perspective of a ten year old boy who along with his four year old sister is dealing with the disintegration of his parents’ marriage. Their break-up and his mothers odd behavior turns violent and the children are there baring witness to the whole mess. Mr. Grace has a way of forcing the reader to face the truth of how violence and abuse although not directed at our children still have an affect on them. Several times I found myself getting very angry with the characters and to me that is a sign of excellent writing. His characters are real and his story is a wonderful tale of forgiveness and survival.
If you feel like reading something on this cold and rainy day (well....its cold and rainy here in Pennsylvania) click on my writing tab. I posted a short story that I wrote for my friend Robin.

I read your short story and I am still shaking. Did it reassure your colleague?
Hahaha No! I'm so mean right?
That was a great story. Loved the twist at the very end.
