“Notes from Nadir” is a wacky and poignant look at a Los Angeles-based writer who is forced to return to her Midwestern home due to financial difficulties. She moves back in with her Mom in a semi-retirement community, works a couple of dead end jobs, and meets a sexy British bakery owner. An opportunity to freelance for Gordon or work as a writer/photographer at The Factory in the armpit of Nadir ensures an income. But how long will she be confined in a lifestyle that she has long outgrown?

If noon is Zenith then Nadir is 6:30. And it was 6:29 and counting down. Way down.

REVIEWS:
“This book reads like a memoir and I think it’s because it is. Honestly, I wasn’t sure I could get through it because it started at an odd point in the character’s life. However, after I started, I couldn’t put it down. Seriously.

Why? It boils down to one thing: The writer is an amazing story teller. The way she describes even the most mundane events drew me in. I had to know what was going to happen next. I can’t compare this book to any other books I’ve read because it isn’t. If this isn’t a true story, you’ll believe it is.

The ending really surprised me and it left such a impact, I’m sure I’m not going to forget this novel in a long time. This is part one in the series. The second book is a must read for me.” - Clarissa Draper, Listening To The Voices.

“I first started reading this memoir through the author’s blog, and I was quickly hooked by her conversational, down-to-earth style. The book - with lots of new content not featured on the blog - follows the author as she leaves behind her LA life and returns to her roots, with lots of vignettes and familial snapshots along the way. A very enjoyable read about trying to fit back into a mould you no longer fit.” - Talli Roland, author of The Hating Game
