One doesn't expect wit along with the wisdom, but it's there. What's also unexpected is the spirit of adventure in a sixty-something who is willing to travel halfway across the world to Zimbabwe to meet an internet contact--but it's there, too. Most surprising of all is the quest for sexuality in older years: something few dating books even discuss. The result is best viewed as a rollicking train ride that leads to a few wrecks, excitement, and a lot of fun." -D. Donovan, Sr. eBook Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

Edition DescriptionNew Edition
Synopsis- Arranging and promoting readings/events in conjunction with other authors. Some are already arranged. - Proposing a panel at the Tucson Book Fair in March 2015. - In the process of recording an audio book. - Have hired a book publicist to pitch to national print (for reviews, interviews, and mentions) and to national and NY TV and pursue national, NY, and regional radio, plus local radio for telephone interviews. - Blog and Facebook page already established; will continue to focus on social media outreach - Have trips to Austria, Italy, California, and Arizona booked; and will attempt to arrange events in each location. - Creating a Daring to Date cookie., Ann is sixty and suffering from celibacy. Going through two divorces has made her skittish; having two children has made her cautious. But finally her longing for sex and romance sends her hurtling out of her comfort zone. Her adventure begins with a very nice transvestite--and gets more interesting from there. Put a divorcee raised in the 1950s into the Internet world, and this is what you get: a comic romp that evolves into a profound and touching experience, complete with some meaty moral questions--and answers. Ranging from Montclair, New Jersey to Harare, Zimbabwe, Daring to Date Again: A Memoir is a compelling, often racy memoir of one woman's late-life adventures with sex and dating in the modern world.
