After I turned 62 this September, I caught myself saying, “Well, I’m old,” as a kind of half-joking excuse. I think of myself as a self-aware person who is generally good about living with the things I can’t change and changing the ones I can. And I really don’t think of 62 as “old.” So where was that self-deprecating comment coming from? Clearly I needed an attitude adjustment, or a tune-up of my sense of self. Or both.

So when Don’t Stop Now—a slim volume that promises to help us 50-plus-year-old women make the most of the rest of our lives—landed in my mailbox, I figured it was a sign. Or at least a possible resource. I’ve learned to not turn down such opportunities when they present themselves.

Fishler and Gianforte make it clear up front that Don’t Stop Now is more like a conversation with a bracingly honest, wise, and sympathetic friend than a book that promises to fix you: The entire review can be found at www.dontstopnow.us

If you’re looking for an inspiring story filled with mystery and intrigue, order my book Searching for Jane, Finding Myself (An Adoption Memoir).

The story was damn incredible — some parts of it so crazy it almost seemed like fiction. The writing was solid — the author had such a great eye for detail — she put me in the same room with her, experiencing the wild (and tragic, and wonderful) things as they unfolded. ~ Amazon Review

Without even realizing it, I spent most of my life looking for my birth mother’s heartbeat, projecting the pain caused by my loss wherever it would stick. Searching for Jane, Finding Myself is a memoir that reveals the abandonment, fear, anger, and sadness that often result from adoption, and demonstrates how healing can ultimately take place.
