So, What's It About?

I'm currently writing a humorous novel entitled A WORK IN PROGRESS.

Somewhere along the way, Becca Jacobson has gotten lost in her own life. Widowed twenty-two months ago, she's determined to compile, edit, and publish a collection of her husband's articles on baseball legends, but navigating the approaching teenage years of her son, Tyler, doesn't leave her much time or energy to do so. And a male co-worker--the self-absorbed P.E. teacher at Thomas Edison Elementary School--has set his unwelcome affections on her. Add to that, she's forced to take a second job when the alternator goes out on her 1993 Honda dubbed "Old Blue," she has an imprudent relationship with Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk, and she doesn't remember how to dream. But with help from an American Idol wanna-be and a female adventurer from the past, Becca finds the courage to rediscover and redefine herself.
