Zada Connaway Author of "Mother's Journals : parts 1, 2 and 3"

Born and raised in Western Washington, Zada grew up in a variety of places such as Seattle, Port Townsend, and many other cities and towns.  She learned about the flora and fauna from her family members and friends.  Many hours were spent in the woods and public parks.  Married three times, and divorced as many times, she learned that she is marriage challenged and that she does not always make the best choices.  Nor does she make a good ‘wife’; instead, she is content to be a partner in life with her best friend.  He has been instrumental in letting her take this new course in her life.

In school, she  enjoyed the English and composition classes, seldom having to take essay assignments home.  She was able to finish the work in class and often assisted other students with theirs. She also took writing courses at Highline College in Midway Washington.  Doing her rough drafts in her head, the final drafts always met with approval, gaining her an "A" as her final grade.

Due to a freak accidental fall in which her ankle was badly fractured, she spent months on her back during recovery, allowing time to formulate this story line.  Since she is no longer part of the work force, she has had the time to sit and write.

Abused as a child, and sustaining further abuse as an adult, when she decided to embark on a writing career, she was told to write about what she knew.  She took her own experiences and attributed them to various fictional characters in her novel, Mother's Journals, Parts 1, 2 and 3.  While she had taken journalistic license, she did not commit any crimes that are depicted in her work.

Her fiction is not for the young and impressionable, as there are many explicit passages better left to the mature reader.  Indeed, portions of this novel should be rated XXX!
