About this title

Synopsis

At My Pace is a collection of short stories that focus on ONE lesson we take from our mothers. Daughters and sons poignantly share their experiences with candor and humor. In some stories, readers will see how children struggle with a complicated legacy but in most cases find their peace. Meet: Ruth, whose mum detests "shoulds" and breaks conventional barriers by becoming a carpenter before World War II; Marsha, whose mom's rallying cry about lipstick goes far deeper than surface beauty; Elyse, who reluctantly tastes pineapple upon her mother's urging and finally understands her call to "grow up"; Noah, who learns from his mom that even if life's not fair, you can still dance the night away; and Laurel, whose mom shows her that divorce doesn't have to be a war of roses but can be a path towards civility. At My Pace is a series to add meaning and understanding to our lives through a candid sharing of our experiences. Each book focuses on a singular topic from a variety of perspectives, the goal being to expand the conversation.
