WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT MOONDANCE

Fast-paced

A message left on Karen's voice mail (verbatim)

"Karen, it's Dee, I had to call and tell you I've just read the first 119 pages of your book and oh my God it's absolutely incredible. I am sitting in a mall doing a promotion and I can't stop reading the book. Anyway, absolutely fabulous I love it, it's got my attention. I don't want to put it down ... it's your fault. I can't wait for the next page." Dee Miller, Executive Director, Renewed Strength, age 41

Raw and gutsy

Raw human emotion where desire collides with fear, fantasy interrupts, challenges abound and hope is restored. For the avid imagination and gutsy risk-taker. A ride for explorers of life's mysteries untold. Linda Plater, Writer and Media Consultant, age 42

Visionary

Moondance is visionary. This book follows its own path, as if paving the way to a new paradigm. It captures the vulnerability of the strong, contemporary, single woman in a way that is deep, honest and truly inspired with new thoughts about the human spirit. Sandra Bekhor MBA, B.Sc., President, Bekhor Management, age 39

Multi-layered

Moondance is a sensuous and thrilling exploration of the human heart. Deeply character driven and compassionate, it explores what it is to be on this earth and live life in a complex and dynamic spiritual and natural world. Honest and realistic in its exploration of modern women and our layered relationships with our mothers, our friends, our careers, our spirituality and the many men who are involved along the way. Ashleigh Hendry, Actor

A favourite quote from Bill Hicks, a visionary that died too young:

"Life is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud and it's fun - for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered and they come back to us. They say 'Hey! Don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride.'" - Bill Hicks (1961-1994)
