It Really Is Fiction

A few folks have asked me if ‘Broken Road’ is autobiographical at all, and the basic answer is no. It is a work of fiction. But the main character and I do have some things in common-our taste in music, my hankering for a PB&J every once in a while, some issues with faith, and, so my husband says, some quirks of temperament.


Since the question has been asked, I feel it necessary to say that my parents are very different from Roxie’s. My folks have always been supportive, loving, non-judgmental people, and I would hate to think that anyone would draw conclusions about my wonderful mom and dad based on the fictional parents in the book.
