3月22日 Still working on #2Well, book #1 went on paper pretty fast, but #2 is coming a little slower. Women's issues can be so complex!! But I am slogging along with it. New ideas all the time. In fact, I have dreams filled with the characters and their dilemmas. Just wish I could remember them all when I am fully awake!
I am hoping to let women all over know that their problems are not new, they are not alone, they are not usually to blame, and that there is always hope, regardless of how they choose to solve them. Some solutions come with dire consequences, though, and they must use good sense and avail themselves of the avenues that have been hard won by those who went before.
Many women are still 2nd class citizens in society's eyes, but that is changing, slowing evolving through the efforts of many other women. These books have romance, but are not intended to be purely romance novels. Hopefully, readers will find a good story line and excitement in the pages they turn.
Mother's Journals, parts 1, 2 and 3 is now available on Amazon.com and searchable by author name. 3月14日 If you want to order my bookShould you wish to, the book can be preordered at: http://www.publishamerica.com/shopping/index.htm
put Zada Connaway in the search box, and it will take you right to it! It will be available through Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble, or it will be available to order through bookstores after May 7, 2007, which is the official release date. The book is not cheap, but it is over 300 pages long. Should the link not work properly, you can go to publishamerica.com and when you click on bookstore, search for Zada Connaway. It will take you right to the page. I finally did it!After many years of saying I would, I have written a novel. I was most fortunate to find a publisher who liked my manuscript well enough to take a chance on me, and agreed to publish it. Thank heaven's they are not a vanity publisher, which means that they are footing the bill for the process. (Vanity publishers will publish pretty much whatever you want if you are willing to foot the bill--sometimes thousands of dollars.)
I am hoping this book, Mother's Journals part 1, 2 and 3, will illustrate that women do not have to suffer abuse in any form, and that many do break free. Having suffered abusive men in my life, I understand some of the mechanics behind the fear and self esteem problems one can suffer through an abusive relationship. While it is not just women who suffer abuse, since I am one, I have written this book from my own perspective.
While none of the people or events in this book are real, things of this sort have happened to women through the ages. They are still happening and I would hope that this humble attempt on my part will give hope to all women who have or are suffering the agony of an abusve relationship. I would also hope that they are able to escape the horrific treatment they may have heaped upon them, and seek assistance. There are explicit acts written of in this novel, but only to convey the diffence between the good and the evil that can occur. It is hoped that this writing will open some eyes to the suffering that many have endured, and to the good that also exists. |
