    About this ebook

    A woman on the brink of fifty joins a rock'n'roll band. It changes her life in more ways than she expected.

    It's the sort of thing Kurt Vonnegut might have written, only he didn't as otherwise his name would be on the cover.

    "First you're an unknown, then you write one book and you move up to obscurity." — Martin MeyersI published my first book in 2004. It became an immediate collector's item. I have several hundred copies collecting dust in my attic. Critics everywhere said it belonged between Ernest Hemingway and Robert E Howard—on an alphabetical bookshelf.My influences include Rocky & Bullwinkle, 1950s sci-fi movies, and silver-age comics.I live in Texas with my wife and four cats.
