Arrivals and Departures from Normal, by Lana Rose
“This candid view of the art world from the perspective of an ambitious woman will enthrall, and perhaps frighten, creative audiences,” Foreword Reviews said about the new novel “Arrivals and Departures from Normal.”
Lana Jean Rose, the author, is an enormously successful environmental artist who suddenly found herself unable to practice her art due to physical pain. She turned to writing as a creative outlet, creating a novel full of bizarre and hilarious circumstances that have left readers enthralled.
“My book is about a teenage girl in her senior year of high school who was abruptly forced to confront the absurd obstacles of life on her own,” said Rose. “The day she turned 18, she returned home to find all of her possessions boxed up on the front porch and a birthday card with a fifty dollar bill and the words ‘good luck!’ written inside!”
“Mercy Me” by Mary Tyler is an erotic novel with an underlying message of self-confidence and empowerment for women.

Mary Tyler is a single mother and an assistant manager at a national bank, who gives seminars at colleges, women’s groups, and banks about understanding credit. She was awarded Region VII SBA Financial Service Champion in 2011 for her work. Tyler loves reading and writing, spending time in the outdoors and traveling.
