A delightfully rare Historical Novel. 85% a biography of a spy, musician, mother and her neice trapped behind German lines in World War I. This background led to a diplomatic post in World War II. Aged 92, Vera disclosed her past life one year before
Techically challenged, procrastinator, and lover of laughter.
Background
Information
Former secondary language teacher.Established WEEDS CORNER MAGAZINE in 2001 to encourage "unpublished weeds" to bloom in an editorial world which appears to prefer violence and erotica.
Published From the Cornfield Ghetto in June, 2006, a light-hearted collection of short stories and novelllas about life in the conservative, almost paranoiac area of central Indiana. Am working on a prequel of that at the moment.
Major influences: Camus, Malraux, politics and environmental debates. Also enjoy "cozy" mysteries.
