COVER DESCRIPTION



I just sent the proof of the cover to the publisher. 
Four Walls and a LeakyRoof should be available by November, hopefully in time for Tecumseh Library's Michigan Author night, where I will be speaking.  

Four Walls and a Leaky Roof

On an icy winter night, Tulip stuffs clothing in paper bags, gathers her three young children, and flees her husband. Waitressing in a run-down diner, determined to build a new life, she is terrified of further abuse and plagued with fears from her past.
Tulip impulsively purchases a dilapidated house, the eyesore of the neighborhood. Her genteel neighbors are less than welcoming of this brassy woman and her unrestrained children.
Will Tulip’s feisty can-do attitude, her hard work, courage and humor be enough to revive “Old Grouchy” and create a home? Or will she need help from an unexpected source?
