As a young girl I wrote stories. Although a few I shared with friends, most of them I kept to myself. I was an avid reader- mostly my mother’s paper backs- Taylor Caldwell and other “grownup” books. Our home life was chaotic-drinking and domestic violence and poverty. It wasn’t a great enviornment to build self esteem. Reading took me away to places; my escape.
In the last few years, my life long dream has come true. Blade Publishing accepted one novel, ONE STEP AHEAD OF DANGER, and later another-LIFE CHOICES. I’ll have my third novel published this year,and currently working on one more!
I’m running a contest-if you’ll go to my web site at www.lindahadaway.com and go to ONE STEP and e mail me what is the town’s name – in one of the slides. Send to ljhadaway@hotmail.com – I will notify the winner by 6/21/10. Thank you!
