In "Women Waking Up, " you'll meet eight different women facing familiar choices in life, but with unique twists that make each story a captivating journey. From humor to courage, cunning to sheer determination, these women handle their challenges with various approaches. As you immerse yourself in their stories, you'll find yourself wondering - what choice would you make in their shoes? This collection of short stories is a celebration of the strength, resilience, and wit of women who dare to make a change in their lives.
Join them on their empowering journey and discover the power of choice in shaping the course of their destinies. Most of these stories were first published in print magazines in the U. K. then in Canada, Australia and the USA. Peninsular short story magazine editor, Shelagh Nugent, published some of them and says: 'They were a delight to me as editor, publisher and, above all, reader. It's great to see them again in this e-book.
Rowan's stories are not only well written and thoughtful, they're entertaining, a quality which is too often missing in the short story genre these days. Enjoy them, I did.'What can I say?' (Writer, Jane Wenham-Jones, after reading the first story in the anthology) 'Oh gosh, this just made me cry. I found 'The Paper Nautilus' intensely moving, evocative and beautifully written.'The choices these women face are not uncommon.
It's what they decide to do which makes each story unique. Read them, enjoy them and see. Would you make the same choice?

Biographie de P.D.R. Lindsay

P.d.r. lindsay (no capitals please in tribute to a favourite poet, e. e. cummings) makes New Zealand home. Born in Ireland, brought up in Yorkshire, educated in England, Canada and New Zealand, writer p.d.r. lindsay is also Mrs Salmon, Ms Lindsay-Salmon and even for eight years in Japan, Professor Lindsay-Salmon. This wide experience of different cultures colours her writing and keeps her travelling.
Social issues are her main concern which is why she writes historical stories about ordinary people, the ones whose names and lives we don't know much about. Reading the diaries and letters of parsons and farmers, wives and daughters, merchants and tradesmen showed her how the basic human dilemmas do not change over the centuries. She finds that certain human trait both good and bad, can be better shown through historical stories than through contemporary ones and hopes that readers will think about those failings as they apply to today.
