Nancy Anne Lockwood

Nancy Anne Lockwood shares many hurdles in her second book, My Beautiful Gal. Nancy is battling bipolar disorder and fibromyalgia at the same time. They are both debilitating diseases. Her bipolar disease has meant many incarcerations, which is difficult due to the rehabilitation. It is very difficult to follow her through each hospitalization both mentally and physically. Nancy Anne resides in a small suburb about forty-five minutes away from San Francisco, California. Nancy’s passion has always meant learning new professions. Being so close to the city allows this way of learning. Nancy has many talents and shares them with others. They are gourmet cooking, oil painting, photography, gardening, and listening to music, especially George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue.” Her rose garden is her pride and joy.
