About this title

Synopsis

Stacia Altman has just received some terrible news. Life-altering news. In fact, life-ending news. She was just diagnosed with a terminal disease. Worse yet, she’s not sure if her death will matter to anyone—including herself. Once an adventurous young girl with a passion for art history, Stacia has somehow evolved into a sarcastic and listless 38-year-old wife of an ultra-controlling husband—a process she didn’t even realize was taking place until it was too late. Instead of lying down on the tracks and waiting for a train to run her over, Stacia decides to abandon the societal role she has played, in order to piece together whatever shreds of her life she can, before it’s too late. While fighting her way through the stages of grieving, Stacia finds great friends, love, and most importantly, humor. As she travels the globe solving the mystery of her life and coming to terms with her inevitable death, she ultimately discovers that the end might just be the beginning…of a greater adventure. Follow Stacia on her journey of spiritual awakening, physical pleasure, and discovery of self—a tale told from within her urn.

About the Author

I am on constant quest for knowledge, and have a love for action, adventure and humor entangled with a good love story. I write lighthearted tales with a fantasy element that will hopefully leave you with an interesting, previous unknown,  fact or two.  

Writing books is a great excuse for doing research in faraway places. My desire to make my writing as authentic as possible has taken me all over the United States, many countries in Africa, and to Florence, Italy on several occasions. 

My current project, book three in the Remains Series, due out in early 2017, takes place on the Native American reservation of Havasupai at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I spent time in that wondrous place with a counsel leader and traditional practitioner learning all I could about the customs of these fascinating people, and look forward to bringing you Remains of the Descendant, the story of Alex Uqualla.

Once a week, I take a break from my serious writing to host a reverse Mad Lib game where I ask Facebook followers for a word and I turn them all into a (usually inappropriate) Flash Fiction story. To join my game, find me on Facebook:
