Ten years ago, on the eve of her second child’s birthday, a young woman received an acceptance letter from the local University, this seduced her into becoming a mature student of Literature for the next decade of her life. Did she intend to become so passionate? In her vintage years, she finds out. After years of an unfulfilling career, her marriage had become discontented. The chosen stay at home parent decided it was time to level up. Mother’s do nothing, anyway. She had always wanted to teach, to instruct; denying herself the pleasure for years because of a fateful inner-critic that wouldn’t allow her to take a leap of faith. Did she succeed in her intentions? Will the Writer’s mind ever set her free? You will only know, if you are prepared to read this for yourself. Several shades amiss from Fantasy-Fiction. The mind-splurge of a woman chasing stars.
