My goal in writing "LEAVINGS: Memoir of a 1920's Hollywood Love Child" was to tell my grandchildren and great grandchildren something about the world and family that produced me. It has been heartening to watch my book being purchased, and now getting reviewed by readers I have never met. The whole time I was working on it I imagined only my family and closest friends would be interested in my story, and I wasn't even sure they would be. I had rocky beginnings, and a few bumps along the way, but at 95 years-old, I can say that I have had a great life filled with love. It doesn't get better than that. I want to thank readers for making me feel like I still have a purpose, even as my life winds down.

Thank you, Evelyn. I am pleased that you enjoyed my book. I wrote it hoping that some younger people would read it, and gain some insights, and it seems you have!
