Manage episode 442321495 series 3454078
Susie Fieckert spent most of her life living in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., where she worked in corporate sales. After her kids went off to college and she experienced an unexpected divorce, she decided it was time to start a new chapter in her life. With some convincing from friends, Susie joined an online dating service and eventually met her husband, Rich. As they traveled to find their new home, they ended up in Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho by happenstance. During the long winters, she wanted something to do and decided to pursue writing, a passion she had thought about for many years. After some convincing, she sat down with a pen and paper and started writing her first book, "Abby’s Road". Drawing from her own life experiences, she realized that many women were going through similar situations. The book begins post-divorce, where the character Abby is trying to figure out her new direction in life, learning that life is meant to be lived and encouraging others to have the courage to take chances.
A great read, you can find the book on Amazon or at the Bonners Ferry Book Store. She will also be doing a book signing at the Barnes and Noble book store in the Spokane Valley on October 27 from 1-4pm.
