About this ebook
Caution! Detour ahead! This collection of 15 short stories emphasizes how life's detours can significantly alter the course of a person's life. Some detours may lead to positive outcomes, success, fame, wealthy. Other decisions can take a person down a destructive path, a path that can be irreversible. Detour is the third book in this author's Road Trilogy and much like the previous two, deals with characters who must live with the consequences of their decisions. The reader will find a variety of characters, ranging from a woman in a chaotic relationship who is facing a vehicular homicide charge to a minister who has lost his faith and is struggling with his hypocrisy. Other stories include a woman who apparently made a poor career decision, but through the intervention of a dog, has the opportunity for attitude change, as well as romance; a truck driver who avoided a youthful incident that profoundly affected his future; a mental health worker whose supervisor's requirement places her in a situation that can help free a man who viciously murdered two women; a lady who is a book addict; and a man who believes he is a famous author--delusional or not? The author provides the reader with a diverse collection of stories which include issues of domestic violence, child abuse, mental health, and addiction. The message here is clear: proceed with caution. Detour ahead!!

I have written most of my life. While still a pre-schooler, I once got in trouble for scribbling in the back of a book. I continued writing throughout school, working on high school and college newspapers, and eventually getting a BA in journalism and creative writing. I have worked as a newspaper writer and editor, as well as a variety of other jobs, such as a substitute teacher, college instructor, and even an Avon saleslady. Currently I hold two master degrees and am a Licensed Professional Counseler and Licensed Addictions Counselor, and have worked in a private prison. Currently I work for a community health clinic as a Behavioral Health Therapist. I love to read, favorites being Tony Hillerman, Henning Mankill and Patrick Taylor, as well as Steve Barry. I love music, current favorites being Celtic Thunder and Josh Groban. My pride and joy are my four children and five grandchildren. I reside in Southeast Colorado, where I continue to write. My current burning desire is a trip to Ireland. Special thank you to my sister, Sandy, for encouraging me to follow her path to Smashwords.
