And now for something completely different! 😀
I usually write fantasy. Sometimes I write science fiction. But this time I was inspired to tell the story of a mother and her teenage daughter living in our own 21st century. There’s no magic in it at all, unless you count the magic of a mother’s love for her child.
Sometimes there’s no way to be right. Sometimes you must simply show up and hope that wrong will be enough…
Genevieve, mother to a teenage girl, believes that if she does everything right she can prevent life’s pain from touching either of them. But 15-year-old Kaitlyn failed to get the memo. She’s sullen, sulky, and resentful.
All the patience, humor, and active listening in the world aren’t worth spit when a teen refuses to talk.
And when Kaitlyn declares that Genevieve isn’t her mom—with good reason—their mother-daughter relationship hits crisis. Unless Genevieve can let go of her parenting strategies and tactics to simply be present, Kaitlyn will take a crippling blow to her identity.
“Right, Wrong, and Amazing” plunges straight to the heart of the dilemma that faces all parents: what do you do when your stellar skills prove powerless against one of life’s curveballs? If you enjoy emotional intensity and rites of passage, you’ll love J.M. Ney-Grimm’s intimate story of how a friend’s secret upends the balance between mother and daughter—and the choices they face to restore it.
