Two years ago my husband approached me with an idea for a new book. He thought it would be a good idea for me to write another memoir. This new memoir would be about what it was like for me growing up in Brooklyn, New York. It sounded like a good idea so I agreed.

So over the past two years I slowly put together my thoughts and memories from when I was growing up. I do have many fond memories. At the same time my husband and I came up with other ideas that would be good to put in my new book. Like sharing what it was first like for me moving and living in Upstate New York and raising a family.

At the end of these two years my mom became sick and passed away. This led to me writing more and having more to put into my new book. I have to say when I wrote about my mom for this book, it wasn’t easy for me. I did some crying because of how much I miss her. Over all I like the way my new book turned out.  I am hoping my new book will make people laugh and maybe even cry a little.

My new book is called ” Brooklyn Raised / Livin’ Upstate”. I put my new book in three parts to make it easier for my reader to understand. Part 1 is called “Growing Up In Brooklyn. Part 2 is called ” Living in the Country” and Part 3 is called “Good – Bye Mom” .

Right now my book is available on the Kindle. I am hoping by the middle of the week it will be available on Paperback. My husband will be working on getting my book in the ibook store and the Nook. It all takes time. For now I hope you will enjoy reading my book on the Kindle.
