Book excerpt: Naked Swans is a bittersweet anthology filled with poetry and fantasy short stories showcasing women's lives.During the writing of Naked Swans, I shared the work in progress with friends and critics. The following are two of my favorite responses. The strongest response was from a fellow worker. The night he read the manuscript he placed it on my desk, then started to leave. He said he was going to beat up my companion for me. I caught him as he was going out the door. Whoa I put an end to his actions immediately. Later, I found a friend from Florida crying after having read the first handwritten draft. She had identified so closely with what she had read that she was convinced that I had written about the events in her life. The story of the Naked Swans is about life maybe yours.
