It’s San Francisco 50 years ago, in the wake of the Summer of Love, at the peak of the 60s Sexual Revolution, and on the cusp of the Women’s Liberation movement. America is at war and in turmoil, and all the rules for sex and relationships have been turned upside down.
In the midst of it all, a beautiful young Midwestern girl is trying to navigate her way to womanhood through an obstacle course of bad luck and bad choices, rampant misogyny, and cultural upheaval for which she isn’t at all prepared.
The lessons learned are sometimes heart-breaking, but over time empowering. For Krista, the journey to love is as raucous—and liberating—as the era she lives in.
Would you like updates on my progress toward publishing The Woman Inside Her? Just “follow” my website or “like” my Facebook page and from time to time (not too often, I promise) I’ll post more about my writing process and also The Woman Inside Her’s themes, plot, characters–who are loaded with sticky issues that are sure to complicate relationships–as well as the times (late 60s) and places (mostly San Francisco) the story is set in.
Love the plot and theme. It’s also such an interesting period in our country’s history. Cheers!
Thanks for your supportive comment. Means a lot! And, yes, it was an extraordinarily interesting time. Writing my novel, going back to that time, has been a real trip (as we used to say)!
Of course, it is crucial that we as writers support each other’s work. I look forward to reading the novel once it’s been completed. Cheers!
Yes. Thank you!
Peace, old sister. Can’t wait to read.
Thanks Mollie. It’s coming next year, 50 years after the story begins. Amazing, huh. I’m with ‘ya — peace.
