This book has been eight years in the making. It is mostly a jumble of thoughts written down in old spiral notebooks and hidden in the bottom drawer underneath various manuals for software packages and hardware long since turned obsolete.
Margaret Kohel Evans invites her mother's grandchildren to a delightful visit with their grandmother, sharing charming memories of her across eighteen life themes.
I've done many things in my life, and my greatest thrill and accomplishment is my book "Joi Lansing. ..A Body To Die For. A Love Story. "
I wrote the book for three reasons.
I wrote it to show the dangers of using silicone injections so that no one else has to suffer injury or even death. If I can prevent one person from using these, I'll feel that it was worth writing.
I wrote it to show how tragic Joi's life was because of her vulnerability and fragile self image, and how it changed when she found someone who loved her for who she was, a gentle and sweet woman.
I wrote it to show the love that can exist between two human beings, regardless of sexual orientation. Joi loved men the majority of her life. She was "straight." When we met, we connected as soul mate with a love that evolved into an all-encompassing committed relationship. This is not just a lesbian story. It is a love story.
